The electronic sector in India is expected to be at USD 29 billion consumer market by 2020, also the industrial growth rate in the previous 5 years is about 9.88%. From these Data, one must realize the huge demand of skilled manpower in this sector. Now the question is, How do you quantify the skills of an Engineering student? Or one can ask, How to enhance one’s skill during engineering? Which approach is better to improve one’s skill set?

An electronic engineer should implement his knowledge to develop everyday devices such as the transmitter, integrated circuit Mp3 player etc. The application is far reaching, right from the indoors of the house to industries. With the help of engineering projects, a student will understand the need of Conceptual learning and its implementation rather than the mere study of theory to retain knowledge.

Projects play a vital role in improving skill as well as in boosting career opportunities for an engineer. Building a project will expose the practical side of a student. Project based learning will lead to interactive education and creates a deeper impact on the student. Most of the projects involve teamwork or programs where students are required to work in a group. On the other hand, it also makes the learning part more fun as students are able to grasp more while learning it in a group. So let us focus on good projects related to different sectors of electronics and Communication which will enhance ones skills.
Deals with the study of the characteristics and qualitative internal action of microelectronic devices for discrete and integral circuits such as diodes, transistors, metal oxide semiconductors. Application of these devices in basic amplifier circuits is explored. These electronic devices are not programmable hence do not need a programming interface. Circuits can be drawn using software such as KiCad/ Eagle CAD/ OrCAD which allows individual components such as resistors and capacitors to be dragged onto the screen. Building a project in this field will concrete your knowledge on basics of Electronic devices. One can explore this field by building your own Printed circuit board.

An embedded system is a combination of Computer hardware and Software, either fixed in capability or programmable, that is specifically designed for a particular function. It is basically an Electronic device which can be programmed.
To begin with one should start with low-level microcontroller manipulation using assembler programming language. Assembler language also gives insight and efficiency in coding. Afterwards, work with Embedded C and Arduino with high-level language or even Simulink modules for faster solutions. With Raspberry Pi, one can use different operating system, and it has well-documented support and library of codes to play with.

Wired network has proven its potential but nowadays wireless communication has emerged as a robust and most intellect communication technique. Each of these networks has their own advantages and disadvantages according to its network characteristics. Wired and wireless have different hardware requirements, ranges, mobility, reliability, and benefits. A wired setup uses physical cables to transfer data between different devices and Computer system. Wireless network refers to the use of infrared or radio frequency signals to share information and resources between devices.

Robotics brings together several very different engineering areas and skills. There is mechanics for mounting the wheels on the axles, connecting them to the motors and keeping the body in balance. You need electronics to power the motors and connect the sensors to the controllers. At last, you need the software to understand the sensors and drive the robot around.

Biometrics is the measurement and statistical analysis of people's physical and behavioral characteristics. The technology is mainly used for identification and access control, or for identifying individuals when used under surveillance. The basic premise of biometric authentication is that everyone is unique and an individual can be identified by his or her intrinsic physical or behavioral traits.
Biometric devices, such as fingerprint readers, consist of:

Digital image process deals with the manipulation of digital images through a digital computer. DIP focuses on developing a computer system that can process an image. The input of that system is a digital image and the system processes that image using an efficient algorithm, and gives an image as an output.
If you take up a project on this you get to learn different algorithms involved in it, by learning to code it and by optimizing your code you will get a rich experience.
Check out the Image Processing course which will initiate your learning in Digital image processing.
DSP refers to the various technique for improving the accuracy and reliability of digital communication. Basically, DSP works by clarifying or standardizing the levels or states of digital signals. DSP based projects allow students to realize specific projects that are not possible with other technologies. DSP can be a simulation project or by using technologies and tools available, DSP projects can be realized in real times.

VLSI Design is a process of creating an integrated circuit by combining thousands of transistors into a single chip. VLSI based projects fall into two broad categories namely VLSI based system design and VLSI Design. VLSI Projects on system design categories has wider scope in innovation in creating a new application. VLSI Design itself involves the design of new IC’s for an increased power efficiency or computational capacities..
