The department has adopted the tutorial
system to monitor the performance of the students and guide
them when ever necessary. Each staff member is allotted around 20
students. Special practical classes and remedial lecture classes are
conducted for slow learners. These unflinching efforts by the faculty
have yielded excellent University results. The department offers
Applied Electronics as application oriented paper to the final year
students. This gives them an exposure to modern electronics like IC
integrated chip which is an integral part of the computer technology.
The department encourages and motivates the students to participate in
extra-curricular and Co-curricular activities.
