If you’re an educational professional who are looking to progress into management and consultancy, or an educational planning or development role, this is the best degree for you.

Course Objective:

1. To introduce the basic concepts of Number system, Logic Gates, and Boolean algebra techniques in
real life problems.
2. To acquaint the student with understanding of application of Minimization techniques and data buses
in engineering and technology disciplines.
3. To make the students appreciate the purpose of using combinational systems and sequential circuits
to create a new domain in which it is easier to handle the problem that is being investigated in society.
4. To acquire knowledge on sequential systems used in wide variety of situations in engineering
domain.
5. To develop Electronic and Electrical Measuring Instruments which will perform the variety of task
in field of aeronautical engineering.
6. To get exposure on Electromagnetic Environment and its application that they would find useful in
aeronautical engineering disciplines.
