The major driving force for the present day Information Technology
revolution is the development in Electronics Engineering. The
advancements in microelectronics, satellite and optical fibre
technology, analog and digital in communication techniques have
resulted in developing complex electronics devices, circuits and
equipments capable of implementing fast and efficient telecommunication
systems. Real time transfer of audio and video signals is now possible
with recent trends in broad band technologies. Penetration of
electronics has now revolutionalised other areas like health care,
instrumentation, automation, remote sensing, signal processing etc. The
basic principles and performance of electronic devices and circuits are
introduced in the course. Design and analysis of different analog and
digital circuits are considered in detail. Different analog and digital
modulation techniques used for communication, equipments and systems
involved in wireless communications, satellite and optical
communication technologies, computer communication and networking,
design and development of microelectronic circuits for computation and
processing, components and systems for electronic instrumentation and
control etc,. form major content of the course. The course also covers
the study of hardware and interfacing of computer systems, programming
skills and application of computers in signal processing and
communication. Graduates in Electronics Engineering have
opportunities in Government and private companies for installation,
operation and maintenance of electronics equipments and systems.
Defence, space and other large research organisations employ
electronics engineers in design and development of complex devices and
systems for signal processing and telecommunication. Industries
involved in design and fabrication of devices, integrated circuits,
embedded systems, electronic equipments etc have also provide large
scale placements for engineers with this specilisation. Installation
and maintenance of electronic equipments used for health care in
hospitals, equipments & systems for instrumentation and control in
process industries automation systems of assembly line in production
industries, etc are also handled by electronics engineers. Knowledge
of computer hardware, networking equipments and communication systems
enables electronics engineering graduate helped them to annexe an edge
in the IT job market. The skills and understanding developed in the
course enable them to be preferred, as software professionals by IT
companies.

Electronics and Communication Engineering and today’s world:
Electronics, particularly computer usage coupled with recent space
age, endeavours has by this time already crept into every sphere of
human activities. Every industry, institution & organization feels
the need of an Electronics Engineer and a Computer specialist.
Today’s world is very much for and of the Electronics &
Communication Engineers. Advanced countries in the world have gone to
such depths of Electronics today that an Electronics Engineer is
indispensable in every front. Opportunity in this highly sophisticated
and advanced branch of engineering is just immense.
Electronics is now a part of our every day life, from your pocket FM
radio to televisions, computers, mobile phones and even the high-end
satellites that process and sends images.
Career prospects
Today, technology is growing at a rapid pace. In the coming future
there is bound to be huge demand for competent engineers in electronic
industry to cope this demand in technology. These engineers would be
involved in creating and sustaining cutting edge technology to stay
ahead in competition.
An electronic engineer can find job in Consumer electronics
manufacturing organisation, Telecommunication industry, IT industries,
Health care equipment manufacturing industry, Mobile communication,
Internet technologies, Power Electronics, and Other industries like
steel, petroleum and chemical industry, directing control and testing
production process.
Electrical technicians and technologists can specialize in
technical sales, product representation, systems management, the design
and manufacture of electronic devices and systems, or the installation,
maintenance and repair of electronic systems and equipment.
They may also work with computers and electronic equipment in the
medical, manufacturing, industrial control, telecommunications,
aeronautical and military fields.
Working Conditions
Electronics and communication engineering graduates can work for
electrical utilities, communications companies, manufacturers, the
military, government, or in the processing and transportation
industries. They are also extensively involved in the manufacturing of
electronic gadgets and devices. The work of an electronic engineer is
varied and depends upon the industry they are working in.
Job Outlook
There are plenty of jobs for skilled electrical and electronics
technicians with postsecondary qualifications. But the job is becoming
more competitive and there are not so many jobs for people with lesser
skills. Technology is improving productivity for many of these jobs and
thus holding down job growth.
An electronics engineer can get a job in Central Government, State
Governments and their sponsored corporations in public enterprises and
the private organizations like All India Radio, Indian Telephone
Industries, MTNL, National Physical Laboratories, AIR, Civil Aviation
Department; Post and Telegraph Department; Co-ordination Department,
National Physical Laboratory, Bharat Electronics Limited, Development
Centers in various States etc. dealing in manufacture, sales and
services of electronics consumer goods and appliances.
Electronics engineers are also absorbed into the entertainment
transmission industry, research establishments, and defense. They can
also take up teaching and research in one of the many engineering
colleges in India or abroad.
