What is Telecommunications?

Telecommunications is the branch of electrical engineering that deals with any kind of messaging and interaction over any kind of transmission medium; wired (telephone and stationary computer networks, fiber optics), wireless (cell phones, radio, navigation, TV, satellite, infrared and so on).

Telecommunications Laboratory is the primary location of practical education and training for undergraduate telecommunications courses within the department. Also several research projects on wireless communications and networks are conducted in the laboratory.
