51. Detail five major Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) of the

department.

119

Strengths Extremely dedicated and hard working teaching faculties

Faculties are dynamic in the areas and discipline (06 Ph.D & 24

M.Tech);

Faculties are keen to adapt new challenges

State-of-the-art infrastructure in the fields of specialisation

Faculties mentoring the students with enthusiasm.

Weaknesses Lack of opportunity in the government sector

Due to recession, less opportunities for the students

Opportunities Digital INDIA and adaption of market oriented reforms will create

further opportunities in allied areas. These changes are creating a

number of job opportunities for ECE engineering students. The

need is to train the students accordingly

Availability of ample research funding opportunities from

government and private agencies.

Industry orientated software (MATLAB, Xilinx, VISIMCOM,

LABVIEW, MULTISIM etc) are available for advance technical

learning, which improve the effectiveness of department.

Ample opportunity in public sector undertaking like BSNL,

BEL, DRDO, ISRO etc.

Scope of Entrepreneurship in the field of Electronics. Challenges To facilitate students in handling their stress in different

issues.

To upgrade laboratory facilities.

To grab funds for research projects by funding agencies.,

To deliver quality research work,

To form a Research group and research environment.

52. Future plans of the department.

Department is planning to organise one National Conference in coming months.

Department had already conducted workshops and in process of arranging more in 2015-

16. More software and hardware for quality research work will be incorporated in

research laboratory in coming academic session. Special lectures/workshops will be

organised for improvement in placements. Faculty will be motivated for filing patents and

copyrights.
