National Institute Of Technology

The Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) Department was established in the year 1968. The department offers Undergraduate (UG), Post Graduate (PG), M.S.(By Research) and Ph.D degree programs that provide students with the knowledge and tools they need to succeed in the Electronics and Communication Engineering. Research in the department focuses on high-impact various disciplines: Communication systems, Wireless networks, Signal and Image Processing, RF MEMS and MIC, Microwave antennas, Optical communication and Photonics, VLSI technologies.

In 1968, Five year B.E. Degree programme in Electronics and Communication Engineering was offered with 40 seats affiliated to University of Madras. In the year 2003, the institution was granted Deemed University Status with the approval of the UGC/AICTE and Government of India and renamed as National Institute of Technology (NIT). Currently the department offers four year B.Tech course with student intake of 120. In 1976 the department started M.E. course in Communication Systems and in 1999, M.E. course in VLSI System was started. Both the PG courses having an intake of 28 students. Department produced first doctoral degree in 1989. In 2005, department started the course M.S. (By Research).

The department of ECE is one of the established and largest departments in the institution. Our faculty brings state-of-the-art research, development, and design experience into the classroom, ensuring that our students and alumni are able to apply for registration as professional engineers in all part of global engineering and the scientific community. In all courses the Department has built an excellent reputation for its graduates in terms of placements.

• To produce globally competent professional chemical engineers.
• To foster process engineering knowledge through research and innovation
• To serve organization and society as adaptable engineers, entrepreneurs or leaders.

Graduates of the Civil Engineering Programme will be able to:

a)  Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and Civil Engineering principles to the solution of complex problemsin Civil Engineering.

b)  Identify, formulate, research literature, and analyse complex Civil Engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics  and engineering sciences.

c)  Design solutions for complex Civil Engineering problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.

d)  Use research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusions related to Civil Engineering problems.

e)  Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering tools such as CAD, FEM and GIS including prediction and modelling to complex Civil Engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.

f)   Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal, and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional Civil Engineering practice.

g)  Understand the impact of the professional Civil Engineering solutions in societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for sustainable development.

h)  Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of the Civil Engineering practice.

i)   Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.

j)   Communicate effectively on complex Civil Engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.

k)  Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the engineering and management principles and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage Civil Engineering projects and in multidisciplinary environments.

l)   Recognise the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.

One among the first three departments to be established in 1964 in the institute, the Mechanical Engineering Department of NITT has had the reputation of being among the finest in the country and is dedicated towards the advancement of technology and science.

Keeping itself up to date with the latest developments and trends in the field and with a dedicated faculty of highly qualified and experienced members in all streams of mechanical engineering, the department consistently strives to provide world class facilities for education and research.An interactive relationship is maintained between the students and staff which enables the students to develop a sound foundation in the stream in a conducive environment. This is also reflected in our campus placement which has been 100% year after year with our students getting placed in the top industrial houses of the country. About 20% of our students proceed to top universities abroad to pursue their higher education.The calibration facilities developed by the department are in accordance with the National Standards for calibration of pressure, temperature and speed measurement. These facilities are utilized by ISO 9000 certified companies.

The department has an excellent industrial interaction and contributes to the industry by offering consultancy services. Some of them are : Heavy Alloy Penetrator Project (HAPP), Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) and Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) and its ancillaries.

The Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, NIT, Tiruchirappalli was started in the year 1964. It offers one Under-Graduate programme (B.Tech.), two Post-Graduate programmes (M.Tech. in Power Systems and Power Electronics) and also research programmes (M.S. and Ph.D.) in the various fields of Electrical and Electronics Engineering. After the institute became NIT, the department has grown not only in terms of student and faculty strength, but also in improving the laboratory facilities for the teaching and research purposes. Thus, the department has dedicated and state of the art teaching / research laboratories. The department is recognized for excellence in research (First Department in NIT-T to be accorded QIP status for Ph.D. programe), teaching and service to the profession.

The faculty members have strong sense of responsibility to provide the finest possible education for both graduate and undergraduate students. The academic strength of the faculty is reflected by the alumni, many of whom are in the top echelons of industry and academia both in India and abroad.

National Institutes of Technology ,Trichy (NITT) is a premier Technical Institution of National repute with Deemed University status and fully funded by Govt. of India. The Curricula and Syllabi of Master of Computer Applications (MCA) course offered by NITT is designed considering the need of different Software Houses in India and abroad and has a high job potential in IT Sector in India and abroad. The NIMCET is a National Level Entrance Test conducted by NITs for admission to the MCA course offered by NITs. The admission to MCA programme in NITT, offered MCA Course,is based on the Rank obtained in NIMCET .
