  4. BE Avionics program best suited to aviation industry requirements.
  5. Good job opportunities upon graduation – students near graduation undergo career development seminar and workshop that provide excellent career preparation.

Program Educational Objectives

The objectives of BE (Avionic Engineering) program are to prepare avionic engineers:

  1. The graduates will apply their knowledge to solve upcoming problems encountered in modern engineering practice through the usage of modern engineering tools. They will analyze the problem, design the solutions and will methodically gather, interpret and communicate meaningful data with pertinent conclusions.

  2. The graduates will apply their learning to pursue higher education, undertake challenging research at national and global levels, proactively engage with the industry, perform effective role in teams and provide visionary leadership through entrepreneurship.
  3. The graduates will use their skills to effectively create a positive impact on the global community and environment while adhering to high ethical standards.

Program Composition

CoE has come up with a comprehensive curriculum covering not only the areas of engineering and sciences but also incorporating courses in humanities, social sciences and management sciences. This is because CoE wants to make visionary engineers with high ethical and moral values working to serve the humanity.

The curriculum has been designed to provide the student basic knowledge in the broader area of Electrical Engineering which is followed by focused courses related to Avionic Engineering. The course of study is focused on the fundamental concepts enabling the students to pursue a career in any area from research and development to sales. In addition to the laboratory work that get the student familiar with electrical, electronic and computing equipment and with experimental techniques, course projects in almost every course help the student to learn how theoretical knowledge can be converted into working projects.
The curriculum is designed in a way that the first three to four semesters cover the courses of general interest (Engineering Foundation). This is followed by covering the Avionic Engineering breadth in the third year. The final year include depth courses allowing the student to specialize in Avionic Engineering. A two-semester senior design project usually involving industrial collaboration provides students with valuable experience in applying their knowledge and skills for solution of real-world problems.
