M Tech Electronics and Communication
Engineering (VLSI Design)

Apart from the vast array of job roles in the semiconductor and electronics design industries, this program is also structured to ignite a deep interest in research and innovation, encouraging students to develop and explore cutting-edge design ideas and methodologies. Graduates of this program are well-equipped to pursue careers in:

• Chip Design and Fabrication
• Embedded System Design
• ASIC/FPGA Design and Verification
• SoC (System-on-Chip) Architectures
• EDA Tool Development
• Low-Power and High-Speed Circuit Design
• Design-for-Testability (DFT)
• Research and Development

VLSI (Very-Large-Scale Integration) design is the cornerstone of modern electronics R&D, enabling the integration of millions to billions of transistors onto a single chip. This program provides a robust foundation for research in:

• 3D Integrated Circuits (3D-ICs)
• Neuromorphic Computing and Edge AI Hardware
• Quantum Computing Hardware Architectures
• Analog–Mixed Signal and RF IC Design
• Hardware Security and Trusted IC Design
• Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs)
• EDA Algorithms and Tools Optimisation

The knowledge and skills acquired prepare students for R&D roles in leading semiconductor firms, national labs, and academic research centres, contributing to the development of next-generation computing platforms, high-performance processors, and energy-efficient systems.

In an era driven by miniaturisation, speed, and power efficiency, VLSI engineers play a pivotal role in designing and delivering the hardware backbone of digital transformation, powering innovations across AI, IoT, 5G, EVs, and beyond.

Employability/Placement Opportunities

The Placement Cell at MVJCE is a vibrant one that takes a lot of effort in studying the pulse of the industry and understanding industry demands. In this ongoing process, the Placement Cell keeps interacting with Industry leaders, Managers and Senior Engineers to ensure that our students will be able to meet their expectations. And right from the day a student enters the portals of the college, the Cell begins rigorous training, preparing the student for the final D-Day, when he will be facing an Interview panel. Our students are trained not only in the technical subjects but are also groomed thoroughly into wholesome people, with the emphasis on confidence-building and communication expertise, making them an asset to any organisation that they get placed in.
