About Electronics & Communication Engineering

      A layman’s imagination of an ECE, is a man working on an integrated chip in a sophisticated lab. With the evolution of the computer age, E&C has crept into every sphere of human life, thus increasing its scope manifolds. Electronics is now a part of our everyday life, from your pocket FM radio to televisions, computers, mobile phones and even the high-end satellites that are helping you read this article now. This was an overview on E&C, but after going through this you all would have quite an in-depth knowledge of what an ECE does and the way it treads the path in the near future.

      Taking educational scope into consideration, today’s world is coming up with new technological advancements every day. These new developments are done by the engineers turned scientists. In bringing your own thoughts in the world’s next brilliant technological advancement amazes you and this path can be achieved by pursuing a master’s in EC or if needed even a Doctorate. In depth knowledge is required for such tasks and this further divides EC into various sub field’s. This has a great scope in the Japan, USA and European countries.

      Having a further look at the career prospects, there is bound to be huge demand for competent engineers in electronic industry to cope this demand in technology. The engineers would be involved in sustaining cutting edge technology to stay ahead in competition. An electronic engineer can find a job in Consumer electronics manufacturing organisation, Telecommunication & IT industries, Health care equipment manufacturing, 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. ECE also have several job openings & good pay-packages as compared to other branches. However the pay-packages may vary according to the institute from which you’ve graduated & your in-depth understanding of the subject. ECE courses are available in most of the old IIT’s, NIT’s and other deemed universities across the country.
