Accreditation
Works related with accreditation is going on in a rapid pace. Department is now strictly following the norms and procedures of NBA. Emphasis is being given on faculty qualification improvement, involvement of faculties in R&D activities, documentation activities such as course files.
Industry Interaction
Department has been striving continuously to establish linkages with industry. Experts from industry are invited for giving talks on recent advances in technology. Students are allowed to undertake project works out sourced from industry and seek guidance from well established R&D departments for in-house project developments. Industry experts are also actively involved during various technical activities related to organizing conferences, workshops etc. Tie up has been made with Tata-Elxsi for final year students and a project was completed successfully.
