Introduction

TOP

The M.Sc programme is well suited to new graduates, design engineers, as well as managers working in the modern telecommunication and electronics industries. The advancement in the telecommunication technology allows people to share information and improve their life in entertainment, health and commerce. A whole range of new multimedia services underpins the colossal growth in all these areas. The rapid growth in mobile phones and Internet has caused the huge demand for the 3rd generation wireless wideband (UMTS), due to be in operation this year in the most of the Europe & the evolutionary research into broadband (Data Bit Rate> 2Mbps) wireless communications with optical communication as backbone network.
 

The courses are tailored to provide an upto date educational experience and specialist skills to meet the increasing World Wide demand for high caliber R & 0 and design specialist in modern telecommunication industry. The contents cover a wide range of technologies of modern telecommunication systems in wirless terrestrial and settlite communications. M.Sc. Telecommunications programme is also aimed at engineers working in the telecommunication industry who want to update their knowledge of the technology or change their career emphasis to telecommunications. The course aims to:
 

• Meet relevant national and international postgraduate education needs of the telecommunication industry. Develop research skills in a leading edge technology.

• Develop a high level awareness of the technical and economic issues associated with the modern telecommunications industry.

• Develop an in-depth understanding of the theory and practice of key specialist topics in communication and associated signal processing techniques

• Provide the ability to apply the course knowledge in an industrial or research setting to a variety of problems.

PROJECT / RESEARCH LAB

The explosive advancements in the modes of communication and enhanced functionality are consequences of research. Keeping that in view, a project/research lab has been established where students undertake major individual etectronics & telecommunications related projects, under the supervision of qualified and professional faculty.

The students are allowed to enter the Labs only on producing their ID cards. They may practice and learn or do work/data processing as a part of their regular academic activities. They may also use the facilities for printing their term-papers or reports. Each computer terminal is connected to high performance printer providing orinting facilities to the students.

RAVIAN CYBER SOCIETY

The society was established at CASP, GCU in 2001 .The main objective of the society is to promote education in telecommunications by conducting lectures and seminars, software competitions, arranging trips to different telecommunication companies and other educational institutions of highest repute. The society also intends to start a monthly news letter “Cyber Vision” from the current year.

EMAIL & INTERNET FACILITY

The students have access to the Internet. It is a very high speed (2 Mbps) link, providing worldwide electronic mail (e-mail) and Internet services to the students. This enables them to subscribe to news groups and conferences on areas of their interest. It covers virtually every conceivable area of knowledge.

TEACHING & TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE

The University believes in the policy of encouraging the hard working and outstanding students by associating them with the management of the labs or to assist the faculty, as teaching assistants (TA’s). The TA’s are normally appointed for 1 term. The students always take pride in being selected as TA’s.

ACADEMIC FACULTY

The University professors concentrate on quality teaching. They also excel as scholars and practitioners in their fields and most of them hold PhD/M. Phil/MS degrees in their disciplines. They are skilled at marking connections between theory and practical applications. Accustomed to the students from all over the world, our professors respect different points of view, ideas and experience and use this intellectual diversity to add life to abstract concepts.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE / SCHOLARSHIP PS

Scholarships are provided after an assessment, based on the needs and merit of the applicant and no candidate can claim scholarships as matter of right, on any basis. Scholarships awarded to a student may be cancelled if he is unable to maintain satisfactory academic performance.
