The department is regularly organizing symposia and workshops to update the practical knowledge of students. Few of our students have built prototype Robots for various applications.
Students are taken to organizations such as SatishDhawan Space Centre (SHAR), National Atmospheric Research Laboratory (NARL), Doordarshan Kendra, All India Radio, Ennore Port Trust, Integral Coach Factory etc through industrial visits. From the first year onwards, value added courses and Placement Training activities are given to the students by expert trainers for skill enrichment. Guest lectures are arranged frequently with eminent professors, research scientists and industrial experts to give the students an insight of cutting edge technologies. Besides academics, our students excel in sports and games by winning prizes in the events organized by other universities and colleges.
The Training and Placement cell organizes various training programs with renowned expert trainers from industries and multinational companies to improve the oral, written and aptitude skills of the students which pave the way to get hired by leading core and IT industries. In addition to these trainings, various Centres of Excellence such as Robotics Process Automation CoE, Artificial Intelligence CoE, etc. play a vital role in providing stream specific training to our students. 91% of our first batch students got their placement through campus placement in leading IT industries such as TCS, HCL, Accenture and WIPRO Technologies etc. In 2012-16 batch, 98% students got placed in reputed industries.
The Central and Department libraries have good collection of around 7216 volumes of textbooks and reference books exclusively for ECE department. IEEE journals and a good number of printed national journals are subscribed to promote research culture. All the faculty members are either doctorates or master degree holders. Most of our faculty members are pursuing their Ph.D.in Anna University, Chennai and are members of various professional bodies such as IEEE, ISTE, IET, IEI, etc.
Our faculty members, Dr.C.Arun (Principal Investigator) and Dr.S.Muthumanickam (Co-Investigator), completed a research work titled “Design and Implementation of Dual Blind Detection Robust Watermarking for Multimedia Security in FPGA” sponsored by Space Applications Centre (SAC) – ISRO with an amount of Rs.12.98 lakhs.
