Bennett University, Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, offers Ph.D. in Electronics and Communication Engineering as a 3-year doctoral degree. The total fee on record is ₹1.8 lakh, which works out to about ₹60,000 a year.

Expect to spend most of your time on circuits, signals and systems, analogue and digital communication, microprocessors and VLSI design.

Bennett University is a other institute, founded in 2016. This page brings together what is on record for this course at Bennett University — fees, seats, eligibility, the admission route and placements — so you can judge it before you apply.

Most Ph.D programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations, the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means circuits, signals and systems, analogue and digital communication, microprocessors and VLSI design. Typical first jobs: electronics engineer, embedded engineer, telecom or semiconductor roles.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask Bennett University for the current semester-wise plan.

The fee figures on record for this course are below. Fees are for the whole course unless marked otherwise.

Colleges revise fees most years, and hostel, transport and exam charges are often billed separately. Confirm the current figure with Bennett University before you pay anything.

To get into Ph.D. in Electronics and Communication Engineering, you usually need a master's degree in a related subject.

Admission to this kind of course is usually through UGC NET and a university's own test. Reserved-category candidates generally get a relaxation in the minimum marks. Check Bennett University's prospectus for the exact cut-off this year.
