ELECTRONICS

The department of Electronics is an integral part of The Oxford College of Science. It was established in the year 1994 with Physics, Mathematics and Electronics (PME) combination, and Computer Science, Mathematics and Electronics (EMCs) as a second combination was started in the year 2000.

The department aims at setting a benchmark in education in the field of electronics. The class room teaching is made interactive by incorporating various methods of teaching and learning.

 In order to develop the practical skills in the students, class room teaching is well supported by rigorous practical training conducted in a well equipped laboratory. The lab sessions include systematic training in circuit designing, assembly, measurements, trouble shooting and analyzing the circuits.

The students are encouraged and guided to undertake practical electronics projects to get a first hand experience in the application of electronics. 

The department desires that every student of Electronics will acquire academic excellence, technical skills, scientific aptitude and temper and holistic development through practical oriented learning methodology.
