 Department Vision & Mission, PEOs, PS0
Vision
To develop highly skilled and globally competent professionals in the field of
Electronics and Communication Engineering to meet industrial and social requirements
with ethical responsibility.

Mission
To provide State-of-art technical education in Electronics and Communication at
undergraduate and post-graduate levels, to meet the needs of the profession and society
and achieve excellence in teaching-learning and research.

To develop talented and committed human resource, by providing an opportunity for

innovation, creativity and entrepreneurial leadership with high standards of
professional ethics, transparency and accountability.

To function collaboratively with technical Institutes/Universities/Industries, offer

opportunities for interaction among faculty-students and promote networking with
alumni, industries and other stake-holders.

Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)

• PEO1: To produce graduates to excel in the profession, higher education and
pursue research exercises in Electronics and Communication Engineering.

• PEO2: To create technically able alumni with the capacity to examine, plan, to
create and execute Electronics and Communication frameworks thereby involving in
deep routed learning.

Program Specific Outcomes (PSOs)

• To Comprehend the Fundamental ideas in Electronics and communication
Engineering and Apply them to identify, formulate and effectively solve Societal
engineering problems using latest tools and techniques.
• To work effectively in a group as an independent visionary, team member and leader
having the ability to understand the requirements and develop feasible solutions to
emerge as potential entrepreneurs.

 Program Outcomes
PO1. Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering
fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering
problems.

PO2. Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, review research literature, and analyze complex
engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics,
natural sciences, and engineering sciences.

PO3. Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for complex 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.

PO4. Conduct investigations of complex problems: 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.

PO5. Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and
modern engineering and IT tools including predicfion and modeling to complex engineering
activities with an understanding of the limitations.

PO6. The engineer and society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to
assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities
relevant to the professional engineering practice.

PO7. Environment and sustainability: Understand the impact of the professional engineering
solutions in societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and need
for sustainable development.

PO8. Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and
norms of the engineering practice.

PO9. Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader
in diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.

PO10. Communication: Communicate effectively on complex 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.

POll. Project management and finance: 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 projects and in multidisciplinary environments.

PO12. Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage
in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.
