The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, established in 1981, is one of the most dynamic departments of Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College. It was the first major diversification initiative by the college, 25 years after its establishment. The department is currently running Bachelors and Masters of Technology courses in Electronics and Communication Engineering and has around 10 scholars enrolled for doctorate in areas like Antenna Design, VLSI, Optical communication etc. Ever since its inception, the department has been the hub of academic excellence through some great teachers who have laid a sound foundation as well as the cream of students of the region, who have spread their wings all over the globe. The alumni of the department are not only excelling in India but also in the Silicon Valley and other hubs of Electronics Technology. They are at the forefront of the Telecom revolution of the last 20 years and manning pivotal positions in Telecom operators in India, South East Asia, Pacific region and Africa. In the end, I can say that we incorporate good technical skills and knowledge to each individual associated with us.

Innovation is a blast whenever it is utilized in a correct way. With such a vision in mind, our final year Student, Montekpal Singh, ECE Branch, have developed ‘automatic hand sanitizer dispenser’ for all of us keeping in mind the Covid-19 pandemic, under the guidance of ECE Faculty members. This project is capable of detecting and cleaning the person’s hands with the use of sensors and microcontroller. Furthermore, it has features like easy refillable tank and smartly controlled spray system which permits the use of sanitizer efficiently without any wastage. Moreover, the system was tested vigorously for any problems and reliability issues. The project has successfully placed in college premises to benefit everyone with its service. Features include:
