Sardar Patel University
Welcome to the Postgraduate Department of Electronics at Sardar Patel University—also known as the Pramukh Swami Institute of Electronic Science—a vibrant academic space where tradition harmoniously converges with technological sophistication, and where we nurture scientific talent to address the frontiers of tomorrow’s challenges.
Established in 1988 with a vision aligned to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel’s ideals of education-driven nation-building and self-reliance, our department was among the first eleven institutions in India to launch a dedicated postgraduate programme in Electronics under the faculty of Science. Since its inception, our mission has been to integrate rigorous scientific fundamentals with contemporary technological applications—offering a distinctive blend of know-why and know-how that prepares our students to contribute meaningfully to research and development in the field. We take immense pride in our distinguished legacy. Our founding Head, the late Prof. S. M. Patel, was a fourth-generation academic descendant of Sir J. J. Thomson—the Nobel Laureate and discoverer of the electron. This rare lineage reflects our department’s enduring commitment to scientific excellence and boundary-crossing innovation.
Our flagship M.Sc. (Electronics) programme is nationally recognized for its academic depth, practical orientation, and relevance to industry. It offers hands-on training in frontier domains such as Embedded Systems, VLSI Design, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC), Semiconductor Science, Digital and Optical Communication Systems, and Advanced Sensor Technologies. The department fosters a dynamic learning ecosystem that emphasizes project-based learning, industry collaboration, entrepreneurship, and scholarly inquiry.
Over the decades, we have consistently produced graduates who are not only technically proficient but also equipped with critical thinking, purpose, and the drive to advance the discipline. Our research continues to make meaningful contributions at both national and international levels. We remain deeply committed to excellence in teaching, research, and innovation—guided by values of integrity, inclusion, and social responsibility.
We warmly invite aspiring students, researchers, and collaborators—both from India and around the world—to join us in this journey of knowledge, discovery, and transformation.
