Professional Programme
For Men

Duration: 2 Years
Optoelectronics has been deemed as the 21st century revolutionary technology that will create as enormous an impact as electronics did in the 20th century. This interdisciplinary M.Tech programme aims to generate trained professionals in the broad areas of optoelectronics and communications with an emphasis on networking technologies. Helf of the courses are core ones and the other half are electives, that enable students to pursue areas that have their academic interest. The core courses give a strong background in science and engineering. These are supplemented with laboratory courses, enabling the students to take up project work in the second year. Graduates with training in optoelectronics and related communication technologies will be useful in industries and R&D organizations involved in the areas of Optoelectronics, telecommunication & networks.
