The infrastructure of the department is excellent with state of art equipments and software related to the field of Electrical Engineering. The extensive facilities available in the laboratories can be utilized for research work, in addition to the lab courses as per the affiliating Anna university requirement for UG and PG.
The department has spacious classrooms, air-conditioned seminar hall ( ICECC HALL), and a well-equipped laboratory. The department has a dedicated fully air-conditioned computer lab with 35 systems, all in a networked environment with un- interrupted power supply. These systems have the recent and most updated Software.
The role of a library is critical in making a knowledge society. So the department functions with a library with a collection of standard books for the faculty and students to refer and enhance their knowledge. The department Library collection also includes DVDs in various subjects as per the academic syllabus.

Measurements & Instrumentation Laboratory
The importance of measurements is simply eloquently expressed in the following statement of the famous physician Lord Kelvin, “I often say that when you can measure, what you are speaking about and can express it in number, you know something about it; when you cannot express it in numbers your knowledge is of meager and unsatisfactory kind”. The advancement of science and technology is dependent upon a parallel progress in measurements techniques. To keep ourselves updated in modern developments and technologies a practical knowledge of measurements and measurements systems is essential. Our MI lab has been catering the above mentioned service to the students.
