The department of Electronics and Communication Engineering was established for imparting state of art knowledge into students and has been functioning since the beginning of the college i.e, from A.Y. 1989-90 with an intake of 60 students. Presently, the intake of the ECE department is 180 students. The department has a faculty strength of 35 well qualified, experienced and dedicated post graduates with six doctorates and some (19) of them are pursuing Ph.D's in different streams.

ECE department encourages students into postgraduate studies and prepares them for leadership roles in research and development. It offers one M.Tech course in VLSI from A.Y. 2011-12 with an intake of 18 students.

The ECE department has good infrastructure with 8 different labs namely Microwave Engineering lab, Microprocessor lab, Digital ICS lab, Communications lab, Computer lab, EDC lab, LIC lab, DSP & VLSI lab. All the labs are fully equipped to cater the present day advanced technology. Computer lab is fully equipped with necessary systems and softwares. The department consists of 10 well-furnished classrooms with e-class room facility and four staff rooms, HoD's room and department library with 1726 volumes comprising of different textbooks, magazines and competitive exam preparation books.

The department has its own association called ISF (IETE student forum) and conducts many technical talks, seminars, quiz etc. There are 250 students in IETE student forum as members. Every semester at least two guest lectures are being arranged in addition to above activities. Our students participating in national and state level technical competitions and there by winning many prizes showing their hidden talents.

Every year our final year students are encouraged to write GATE, CAT, GRE, TOEFL & IELTS exams. Our students got all India gate ranks every year. Our students get top ranks in the university exams conducted by Andhra University. Students are encouraged to participate in state and national level technical contests. A national level technical symposium is being held in the department during 1 week of march every year.

ECE department has established R&D cell and electronics hobby club with a great support and motivation from Dr. T. Venkateswra Rao, head of the department, ECE and Dr. G. Samabasiva Rao, Principal. These two clubs intends to develop expertise in students to prepare them for taking up interviews and placements in core sectors of Electronics and Communication Engineering. These clubs will conduct guest lectures and workshops with hands-on sessions that will enable students to expertise on industry relevant concepts and skills. Hardware and software resources existing in r&d center will be utilized for the development of students as well as faculty.
