How the ECE curriculum is better than other branches!
Electronics and Communication Engineering plays an important role in futuristic technologies both in Indian and global markets. For example, 6G, Glasses-free 3D-TV, Autonomous driving, Industry 4.0, Augmented/Virtual Reality and Artificial Intelligence etc. The Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) at SRM University-AP is organising a panel session on the topic “Higher Studies Opportunities with ECE” on July 10, 2021, at 6.00 pm. In the session moderated by Assistant Professor Dr Sunil Chinnadurai, Assistant Professor Dr Inbarasan Muniraj will educate the attendees on the reasons why one should choose Electronics and Communication Engineering rather than Computer Science Engineering.
The syllabus at SRM University-AP brings up industry-ready ECE graduates incorporating the design thinking curriculum along with advanced courses such as AI-ML, IoT, Embedded systems, Advanced VLSI, Signal Processing, Communication Systems, and Networking which are the current needs of the industry. ECE better than other engineering branches because the top inventions like mobile phone, Computer, Satellite, Internet, 5G/6G, IoT, AR/VR, Holograms, Machine Learning, AI, smart homes/cities, together with some of the recent necessities like CT scan, Oximeter, infrared thermometers are all the products of ECE.
Let us BREAK the myth that the Electronics and Communication Engineering branch is a hard nut to crack and know about higher education possibilities by joining the interactive webinar on July 10, 2021, at 6.00 pm.

Design of modern MW size wind turbine rotor blades
Department of Mechanical Engineering at SRM University-AP organises a talk on “Design of Modern MW Size Wind Turbine Rotor Blades” as part of the departmental seminar series on July 17, 2021, at 4.00 pm. Dr Subbareddy Daggumati, Assistant Professor at IIT Tirupati will be the guest speaker at the event. This talk aims to highlight the various energy sources in India and the role of renewable energy in electricity production.
Dr Daggumati obtained his PhD from Ghent University, Belgium. He had been the wind turbine blade designer at Siemens and General Electric Co. In this lecture, he will elucidate on the energy production using wind energy. The kinetic energy of wind is collected using the blades of wind turbines. Wind flows over the blades creating lift (similar to the effect on aeroplane wings), which causes the blades to turn. The blades are connected to a drive shaft that turns an electric generator, which produces (generates) electricity. The lecture will consequently introduce various parts of modern MW size wind turbine parts to the attendees. The methods to develop wind turbine rotor blade designs will also be discussed in detail.
Join this technical lecture organised by the Department of Mechanical Engineering on July 17 at 4.00 pm to learn more about the design of modern MW size wind turbine rotor blades.
