Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering was established in the year 1986 with an intake of 60 students for Bachelor of Engineering (BE) programme and affiliated to Bangalore University. Subsequently the department of Electronics and Communication Engineering of Kalpataru Institute of Technology was affiliated to Visvesvaraya Technological University during the year 1998. Currently the department is offering Bachelor of Engineering with an intake of 120 students in Under Graduate (UG) programme. The Department also has a Research Center where the Research Scholars can do Research & pursue Ph.D Degree. The Department offers an excellent academic environment with a team of highly qualified and dedicated faculties. Several staff members are currently doing their research work and are involved in guiding several projects. The department has upgraded tools like CADENCE which is the backbone for Digital and Analog IC chip designing, MATLAB, XILINX-ISE, Microwave laboratory etc. The department has provided the students with well-equipped laboratories and facilities for academic excellence. The Department regularly organizes FDPs, seminars, workshops and other interactive programs under the host of ECEA (Electronics and Communication Engineering Association) to keep the student community updated about the latest happening in the field of Electronics and Communication. The competent authority,National Board of Accreditation - NBA has approved the following accreditation status to UG programme of Electronics and Communication Engineering Department two consecutive times as given below

• E&CE Accredited for the Academic Years 2016-2017 to 2017-2018 for 2 years
• E&CE Accredited for the Academic Years 2022-2023 to 2024-2025 for 3 years
