Electronics & Communications Engineering
The Information Age has incontestably arrived, the Digital Era is here to stay, Networking is the buzzword today and Connectivity is the key to leverage information. A social metamorphosis is taking place, heralding the emergence of an Information Society in which anyone can acquire and exchange information at anytime, anywhere. In modern times the range of communication tools and devices are numerous starting from telephone modes to satellites, computers and internet video streaming, to name but a few. Without the advancement in electronics, these would not have been possible. Herein lays the basic importance of the discipline. Established in 1999, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering is enriched with qualified and experienced faculty members with several years of exposure in Electronics and Communication Engineering and its allied fields. The faculty members are also pursuing research work regularly followed by national and international publications in their credit.
The department is equipped with more than 23 full-fledged state-of-the-art laboratories which cater to the needs of producing highly trained and competent engineers who are already proving their quality and worth the present-day global market. The department boasts about its well-equipped Electronics and Communication Engineering Laboratories, such as Microwave Engineering, Communication Engineering, Advanced Communication Engineering, VLSI Design, Analog & Digital Electronics, Digital Signal Processing, Microwave and Simulation Laboratory. Our ECE department has received a sanctioned MODROB fund, of Rs.7 lac, from AICTE for development of Communication Laboratory and Rs. 15.74 lakh for VLSI design laboratory. All of the laboratories are furnished with most up to date latest instruments and tools. The department conducts two undergraduate and one post graduate programs. The two undergraduate programs are B. Tech in Electronics & Communication Engineering (NBA Accredited, 2009-2012 and 2016-2022) and B. Tech in Electronics & Communication( VLSI Design).
Keeping precisely the above important aspects of Electronics and Communication Technology in view, the department has rightly introduced the post graduate programme M. Tech with specialization in Electronics and Communication Engineering since 2008.
Electronics & Communication Engineering Department is one of the oldest and premier departments of MCKV Institute of Engineering since the inception (1999). The department offers two B. Tech degrees viz. B.Tech in Electronics & Communication Engineering and B.Tech in EC(VLSI Design). M.Tech in Electronics & Communication Engineering is also being conducted for over 14 years to encourage UG students in higher studies. The B. Tech in Electronics & Communication Engineering has been accredited by the NBA visiting team for the period 2009-2012 and 2016-2022.

Recent Events
ESCAPADE - 2024
ESCAPADE-2024, an event organized by the Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) department, proved to be a remarkable affair, showcasing the talents and competitive spirit of students across various departments of our college. The event comprised three exciting rounds designed to test different skills and abilities of the participants.
PRAYAS – 2024
‘PRAYAS’, initiated the year 2017 is our small endeavor to foster research orientation amongst our talented and energetic students. It aims at enhancing their independence to learn, think and synthesize in order to contribute research ideas and innovations in traditional and emerging areas of Electronics and Communication Engineering. In this competition, student participants will get an opportunity to present their technical articles. This will provide them a platform to share their ideas with other participants and eminent experts in the field and through technical discussions emerge with improved solutions. PRAYAS – 2024 looks forward to attain success like the last six years with the active support of the student community.
