The department of Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering was started in the year 2007 with an intake of 60 students and the intake is increased to 120 students from the academic year 2009-2010 onwards. Currently there are 14 faculty members with 231 students. This course was introduced as there is an increase in demand in the field of Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering and E&I is a complete blend of technical subjects involving both Electronics and Instrumentation fields imparting adequate knowledge and expertise. With the advancement and widespread applications of electronics and computer in instrumentation and control, the syllabus is framed to include core courses of electronics, instrumentation as well as computer engineering taken into consideration.

The department is equipped with eminent faculty members specialized in different areas including Process Control & Instrumentation, Medical Electronics, Power Electronics, Applied Electronics, VLSI design, Instrumentation Engineering etc., The department has well established laboratories namely Virtual Instrumentation Laboratory, Transducers and Measurements Laboratory, Electronics Laboratory with good infrastructure and state of the art instruments.

The responsibilities of Electronics and Instrumentation Engineers will be with the design, construction and maintenance of instruments and entire instrumentation systems of any industrial undertaking. After completion of this course, students will have very high opportunity in almost all Automation industries, processing industries, chemical industries, bio-medical instrumentation , power plants, Fertilizers & Chemical industries, Petrochemical industries, Navigational & Aerospace Organization, Food Processing Industry, Weather Stations etc.,

An instrumentation engineer supports control-system engineering activities by designing, developing, installing and testing a company's electrical and instrumentation systems. The main focus of E&I engineers will be in the field of Control systems design , Process control and instrumentation, Electronics design and manufacturing ,Engineering research and development, Sales and service of technical equipment, Project and technology management etc.,

The challenges involved in studying Instrumentation Engineering (such as problem solving, having a design focus utilizing technology to benefit society, etc) and skills (such as project management, communication, technical, analytical, team membership, leadership skills etc) needed to perform the job as Instrumentation Engineer.
