Educational institutions contribute to the human progress through useful knowledge. Engineer-ing Colleges are to be even more effective instruments of tech-nical progress. They also contribute to trans-formation of Society. Engineering education at ATME tries to fulfill the above requirements by creating a learning environment. Depart-

ment of Electronics & Communications Engi-neering is a fore runner in this aspect. Students and faculty of Electron-ics & Communications Engineering depart-ment are challenged to go beyond portals of classroom, by involv-ing themselves in pro-ject work, professional conversation and by participating in differ-ent technical as well as

co-curricular events. This newsletter records all the activities of de-partment of Electronics & Communications Engineering. I hope and pray that the learn-ing here will transform everyone to move for-ward and face the fu-ture with confidence.
