Alumni Sponsored Lab

Over 27 years, the Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering at Nirma University's Institute of Technology has created a vast, world-wide alumni network. Alumni regularly contribute to various department activities. In 2021, alumni decided to create a completely alumni-sponsored laboratory at the university.

This laboratory will focus on the increasingly important areas of machine learning, computer vision, and robotics. It will provide both hardware and teaching to allow students to do high-quality research projects. These projects will focus on problems relevant to current needs of the Indian society.
