Holistic Development of students in the ECE department at NCU

“Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today- Malcolam X”. 

The value of holistic education is unparalleled in today's time. This is exactly what pursuing ECE at The NorthCap University (Formerly ITM) provided us with. Well, NCU Gurgaon is the correct stepping stone for success. The overall development happens when you are guided by true individuals for the right track. In ECE department, the development of the students is enhanced at a good pace. Faculty’s rich experience, knowledge and pedagogy are is immensely helpful in grasping the courses. We could walk in anytime and are always meet with a patient ear to solve all our queries.

 By evaluating the students’ potential through various fields like extempore, competitions, project making, project demonstration and so on. Studying in a Semi-IT field, it is expected that a student must be skill-oriented . Thus, faculty focuses on skills area primarily which includes programming, aptitude, analytical skills and many more. Development not only means that one should be good in academics or orating skills whereas the students in the ECE department also focuses on developing their moral values and as well as discipline skills. To bring a bright character one should be evaluating himself or herself in every aspect. To make the students aware of the external world specially in industries, many industrialists visit the campus for enlightening students on the current technologies or several industrial visits are being held so that a student will come to know on which level he or she is currently thinking.

Sharing your ideas with experienced people will help you to expand your knowledge horizon. So, the students are allowed to showcase their ideas and give a new start to their projects by conducting several competitions. The young minds are given ample opportunities for a great start to their ideas and are invited to work upon live projects as well. 

Around the pre-final year, the students who require extra courses with proper training are also being held on the campus in which the campus invites the professionals and allow them to teach the students. Now as we are advancing in the field of digitalization, it is mandatory to have good hands-on experience with the latest software like MATLAB, CADENCE, etc. So, it is a boon for students to have a well-equipped state of art labs in the department.

Periodically guest lectures, workshops, seminars are being arranged for the students so that they can get training on the latest technologies. Generally, the courses are subject-oriented only but, in our department, we have project-oriented courses also which help the students to enhance their practical and as well as theoretical skills. While many talks of student-industry synergy, we actually realized the true essence through multiple field visits, leadership guest talks, professional societies, clubs and internships. 

Interests ranging from co-curricular to extra-curricular are given an outlet of expression through various fests, international societies and competitions. 

This serves a dual purpose for us exploring the interests as well as learning to manage and lead. Thus, the ECE department focuses to develop the all-round personality of its students.
