Curriculum
  • A VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration) Design and Technology curriculum typically encompasses a broad range of topics related to the design, fabrication, testing, and application of integrated circuits (ICs) and semiconductor devices. The curriculum is structured to provide students with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills needed to work in the semiconductor industry or pursue advanced research in the field of VLSI design. 
  • The VLSI design curriculum equips students with knowledge in the fields of Signal and Image Processing, Analog and Digital Electronics, Microwave Engineering, Antenna and Wave Propagation, Wireless and Fiber Optical Communication, Digital Image processing.
  • The second year curriculum provides a robust foundation in both theoretical and practical aspects of the field. The 3rd and 4th semesters are structured with a total of 40 credits. The curriculum includes essential courses such as Analog Electronics, Digital Electronics, Network Analysis, Signals & Systems and Engineering Electromagnetic which are fundamental to understanding and designing the electronics circuits. Additionally, students gain hands-on experience through the courses communication systems Networks & Simulation and Analog Electronics. The semester also includes courses on Social Connect Responsibility, Biology for engineers and the exploration of universal human values. Ability Enhancement Courses are offered from the second year onwards, with options to select from 11 verticals / clubs to hone innovative thinking and creativity.
  • The third year focuses on expanding students’ understanding of HDL Programming, VLSI Design, DSP Algorithms & Architecture, Micro Electrical Mechanical Systems and Opto electronics. The semester also includes courses on Research Methodology and Intellectual Property Rights, along with environmental studies. In the sixth semester, students explore into the core courses like ARM microcontroller, VLSI Verification, SoC design, Virtual and augmented Reality. Both semesters are structured with 40 credits to provide a broad and balanced instructive experience. 
  • In the final year, students delve into ASIC Design, System Verilog and Microelectronic Circuits gaining proficiency in Low Power Circuit Design techniques. They also have the opportunity to choose from a range of professional and open elective courses to mold their learning experience to their interests and career goals. Students undertake Project, where they apply their knowledge and skills to a comprehensive project in VLSI design. They also participate in a research or industrial internship and present a seminar, culminating their undergraduate studies with practical experience and academic rendezvous. 
  • The curriculum includes a variety of elective subjects that allow students to explore niche areas and advanced topics such as: Machine learning, Artificial Intelligence for Electronics Design, Optoelectronics, Physical Design & Automation, Static Timing Analysis and CMOS RF Circuit Design.
  • The curriculum includes open electives from other engineering and science disciplines like Python Programming, Cyber Security, Introduction to Data Science, Ethical Hacking, Nano Science & Nano Technology, Smart Sensors and Systems for Industrial Applications and Automotive Engineering. These electives allow students to explore diverse fields, enhance their knowledge base, and integrate concepts from different areas of study, ultimately contributing to their overall development as well-rounded professionals.
  • Students pursuing a major in VLSI design have the opportunity to earn an Honors degree or a Minor degree in specialized areas by accumulating an additional 18 credits. This provision aligns with NEP’s vision of offering flexible and specialized education paths.
  • The curriculum places significant emphasis on practical training and real-world experience. Students engage in extensive lab work, internships, and project-based learning, addressing societal and industrial problems. Students are encouraged to pursue certification courses from platforms like NPTEL, Swayam, MOOC and Infosys Campus Connect to supplement their formal education. These certifications help students stay updated with the latest trends and technologies in the field of VLSI design.
  • The aim of the VLSI design curriculum is to produce well-rounded professionals equipped with technical expertise, ethical values, and a scientific temper. By integrating theoretical knowledge with practical skills and emphasizing ethical and societal responsibilities, the VLSI design curriculum at MVJCE provides students with a comprehensive understanding of VLSI design and technology, equipping them with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in the semiconductor industry or pursue further studies in the field. It combines theoretical foundations with practical experience and hands-on projects to prepare students for the challenges and opportunities in the field of VLSI.
