Electronics and Communication Engineering

Dear reader,

If software development is your first priority, switching to computer Science at Jaypee, Solan is a wise decision. But LPU is a great option; its CSE programme is well-known for its industry-driven specialties and international hackathons. Tech pros have a competitive advantage thanks to LPU's state-of-the-art campus and wide placement network.

Dear reader,

Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE) broadens the scope of Electronics Engineering to encompass signal processing and telecommunication systems, whereas Electronics Engineering is primarily concerned with circuit design and hardware components. The ECE programme at Lovely Professional University (LPU) offers a clear edge thanks to industry-collaborated labs and a curriculum that equips students for professions requiring worldwide connectivity.

For more information kindly contact their concerned department.

I hope this information helps.

Dear reader,

GATE EC exam - Electronics and Communication Engineering paper was held on February 15 in the first shift- 9:30 am to 12:30 pm. 

With 87% in Class 12, getting ECE at Thapar University is unlikely through board-marks alone.
ECE admissions are mainly based on JEE Main rank, while Class 12 marks are only for eligibility.
In board-merit rounds, ECE cutoffs usually go 93–95%+ PCM.
So, 87% isn't enough by itself — a strong JEE Main score is the realistic way to secure ECE.

GATE exam pattern for CS, EC, EE, and ME comprises general aptitude section (GA) carries 15 marks, while the subject-based questions carries 85 marks, out of which engineering mathematics section consists of 13 marks. 

Here are some good books for GATE Electrical Engineering and Electronics and Communication Engineering  -

The GATE 2026 two-paper combinations for EC, EE, CE, ME, CS, and DA can be checked below -

No, if you want admission in the first round. At IIIT Bhagalpur, the first round closing cutoff for the BTech ECE course was 44609 for the General AI category. For other categories, it's even more competitive. 

However, you can wait for the next rounds of counselling to be released, since the cutoffs do get lenient as the counselling process progresses. To know the round 1 and last round closing rank of previous years to get an idea of the cutoff trend, see below.
