The All India Council of Technical Education, New Delhi, has granted approval to DRIEMS in 2008 to start M.Tech.in Electronics and Communications Engineering and Computer Science & Engineering. We see it as a symbol of recognition of the extremely hard work put in by every member of the DRIEMS family - every student, every staff member and every faculty member - over the last ten years.
The approved intake is eighteen seats for each program and the program is affiliated to the Biju Patnaik University of Technology, Orissa. It is heavily oriented towards the needs of the industry and has a very large component of research projects and laboratory work. Most of the M.Tech. theses will be on research topics sponsored by the industry and this should automatically lead to placement in the sponsoring agency.
This M.Tech. program will also give a major boost to the research activities of our faculty members and will push the quality of their work to the next higher level of excellence. Finally, we see this program as another successful step in our never ending quest for academic and technological excellence
