Manipal

Design the Future of Semiconductor and Wireless Innovation

The M.Tech in Electronics Engineering (Digital Electronics and Communication Engineering) at Manipal Institute of Technology gives you advanced knowledge in semiconductor systems, wireless communication, and digital hardware design. The program builds strong technical depth through subjects such as Detection and Estimation Theory, Modern Wireless Communication Systems, Optical Communication, and Digital VLSI design. You gain the ability to work with high-speed communication systems, integrated circuits, and signal processing platforms that form the backbone of modern technology.

You learn through a research-driven academic structure supported by expert faculty, modern laboratories, and industry-linked projects. Minor projects across semesters strengthen your ability to apply engineering concepts to real-world problems.

Program Highlights

Dual Specialization Advantage: You gain expertise in both Digital VLSI and Communication Engineering, two high-growth areas in semiconductor and wireless domains.

Research-Focused Academic Structure: Dedicated research methodology courses and guided projects build strong research capability and analytical thinking.

Industry-Linked Learning Environment: Internship opportunities with companies such as Intel, Qualcomm, Nokia, and AMD connect academic learning with industry practice.

Advanced Semiconductor and Wireless Curriculum: You study 5G and beyond 5G systems, optical communication, signal processing, and advanced processor design.

Global Academic Pathways: International programs such as the 1+1 program with the University of Surrey, UK, and semiconductor project work with National Cheng Kung University, Taiwan provide global academic exposure.

Access to Semiconductor Fabrication and Design Resources: Collaboration with IIT Bombay and Semiconductor Laboratory (SCL) gives access to semiconductor fabrication facilities and Process Design Kits used in chip design.

Continuation of Scholarship

The award of Fee Waiver for the subsequent years will be the same as given at the time of admission in the first year. Scholarship will be extended in the subsequent year only to those students who have cleared all subjects in the University Examinations of previous year before the due date for payment of annual program fee. Students who are promoted to next year with failures (F) / Incomplete (I) / Detention (DT) grades, will NOT be eligible for fee waiver for that academic year. Fee Waiver will be forfeited in the instances of irregularity in attendance, proven charges of indiscipline, bringing disrepute to the Department / Institution / University etc.

Withdrawal Policy

In case the candidate leaves the course before the course completion (for any reason), he / she MUST reimburse the total program fee (as per Prospectus 2025) for the years of scholarship utilized, back to MAHE Manipal.
