Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) is the gateway for admission into the Masters Program and Job in Public Sector Companies. It is a national level examination that tests the comprehensive understanding of various undergraduate subjects in engineering and science. GATE is conducted jointly by the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) Bangalore and seven Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) at Bombay, Delhi, Guwahati, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Madras and Roorkee on behalf of the National Coordination Board (NCB)-GATE, Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Education (MoE), Government of India.

All prudent BTech students preparing for GATE are invited to attend this workshop on July 17, 2021, at 2.00 pm to know more about this Computer Based Test (CBT) that has a crucial role in the life of an engineering graduate.

The Department of Electrical and Communication Engineering at SRM University-AP is organising a webinar session on the topic “Insights into Signal Processing @ ECE Department SRM AP” on July 24, 2021, Saturday, at 6.00 pm. Prof Priya Ranjan from the department will elucidate on the topic via the zoom platform.

Signal processing is a widely used technology that pervades every aspect of our lives. Signal describes how some physical quantity varies over time or space for example sound pressure, radio/television broadcast, movies, electrocardiogram etc. Signal processing is a subfield of electrical engineering that involves manipulating a signal to change the basic characteristics of a signal or to extract some information from it. This is performed by computers, special purpose integrated circuits or Analog electrical circuits.

To know more about analysing, modifying, and synthesising signals with the Department of ECE, join this invigorative webinar on July 24, 2021, from 6.00 pm onwards.
