About

Instrumentation is a multidisciplinary field of engineering, integrating principles from electronics, computing, and mechanical engineering. Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering (EIE) addresses the requirements of the rapidly advancing field of electronics and automation. The Department of Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering (EIE) was established in 2002 with an annual intake of 60 students. This department was created to meet the essential and relevant need to cultivate young talent in the field of electronics and instrumentation.

The thrust areas includes

• Electronics
• Sensors and Control (Automation)
• Programming/Computing

The department is staffed by highly qualified and eminent faculty members possessing extensive knowledge and vast experience in academia and industry. Over the past eight years, the department has achieved numerous milestones in the field of technical education. Students from EIE secured commendable positions in national and international competitions, such as the Xplore 2023 award (by Phoenix Contact Germany). A significant number of graduates from our department have been successfully placed in national and multinational corporations.

The department boasts well-equipped laboratories, including the “Transducers and Measurements Lab,” the “Instrumentation Lab,” the “Virtual Instrumentation Lab,” and a fully automated “Process Control Lab.” These facilities are essential for students to achieve proficiency in the practical aspects of instrumentation. In addition, the department maintains a dedicated Research Laboratory and a Calibration Laboratory.

The Department of Electrical and Instrumentation Engineering (EIE) oversees an association designated as IDEA. This association is responsible for conducting a variety of activities, including seminars, quiz competitions, group discussions, technical paper presentations, and lectures delivered by invited experts.

PO10. 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.

PO11. Lifelong 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.

Program Specific Outcomes (PSO)

PSOs represent what the students should be able to do at the time of graduation from Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering,

PSO1(K4): Apply the concepts of Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering to design a variety of components and systems for applications including and not limited to electronics, control system, process and industrial instrumentation, signal processing and other related areas of engineering.

PSO2(K3): Select and apply cutting-edge engineering hardware and software tools to solve complex Electrical, Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering problems.

Career Scope

Graduates specializing in EIE have diverse career options across various sectors, including electronics hardware, automation/instrumentation, and software/programming.

Furthermore, pursuing minors in computer science, mechanical, or electrical engineering, alongside a B.Tech. major in EIE, significantly enhances graduate employability.

Opportunities for higher education in fields such as Robotics, Mechatronics, Automation, VLSI, Embedded Systems, and Computer Science are also accessible to EIE graduates.
