“This latest offering in electrical and computer engineering is a testimony to the agile and rigorous process we follow. The emergence of computer engineering has led to a fundamental shift in the design of electrical and electronic equipment, with low-cost microprocessors/ microcontrollers being embedded in a system performing dedicated functions. A lot of hard work has gone into this essential integration of the curriculum in keeping with the times. This curriculum is quite distinct from the Computer Science programme we already offer,” says Dr Rupamanjari Ghosh, vice-chancellor, Shiv Nadar University, Delhi-NCR.
“This new programme addresses the emerging trend in industry and research in which knowledge of computer engineering becomes essential for electrical engineers where the use of the latest hardware and software analysis tools are some of the key features of this programme. It also allows a student to exercise more options in terms of Specialization in electives rather than having to commit prematurely one of the two streams defined by the two distinct BTech programmes,” Dr Sandeep Sen, Dean, School of Engineering, Shiv Nadar University, Delhi-NCR.
