The department of electronics was started in the year 1988-89. The laboratories were built with the generous donation of Sri L.S. Purushotham in memory of his wife Mrs. Vasantha Purushotham. Prof.. T Ashwathnarayana Rao was the head of the department.

The department of Electronics was headed by Sri. Malatesh S. Akkur whose enthusiasm made this department to do the best for the students. Now the department is headed by Smt. Poornima Hegde. It has two members of teaching staff and one non-teaching staff.

Currently the department is equipped with three laboratories (one for analog, one for digital and one for computers). One class room is equipped with projector.

The students are provided with full assistance to prepare projects and they are also encouraged to participate in inter-collegiate competitions. Many of the students have brought glory to the department and college by winning prizes.

• Students are studying the microcontrollers before final year of their B.Sc., which helps them to do the project in the final year.

• They are studying C programming as well as embedded C in B.Sc.

• Students are studying Signals and Systems and Verilog in the final semester of B.Sc. which focuses on both communication and application areas.

• UG students study different SIMULATION tools like KIEL, MATLAB, XILLINX and LABVIEW which help them in designing.

• Students are studying Java Programming in I semester of M.Sc. which helps them in their carrier.

• Advanced topics like VLSI, Embedded systems are introduced in M.Sc.

• Nano Electronics and MEMS are the part of M.Sc..

• M.Sc. syllabus is such that each student will have the eligibility to work in the field of Electronics either in teaching, research or Industry.
