“The world is now in hand pent”

It is now a widely used phrase in the world. Another popular word is “Smart”, Smart TV, Smart Mobile, Smart watch…etc.

The question is which makes the world smart and fetches it in hand pent?

The answer is simply “Electronic Technology”.

Remarkable advances in electronic technology over the last few decades have created this smart world. The use of electronics technology in combination with computer and telecommunication technology is making the world smallest. Its widespread use has no boundary now. In a word its uses are from kitchen to satellites. Hence to meet the demand for smart world, the demand for electronics technologists at home and abroad are smartly increasing and will continue to grow. As a result, the education of electronics technology is transforming into a highly functional education from skilled technician to design engineer. It is the application of scientific theories and principles in the design, production, installation, testing, service, use, and control of electrical and electronic parts, equipment and systems. It is used across all industries, including commercial, residential, and industrial. Technologists normally work as members of "engineering teams" in applied design, product development, installation, maintenance, manufacturing, production, or operations. Graduates may also work in technical services including field engineering, customer support, marketing, and sales and work in a wide variety of industries including manufacturing, utilities, and telecommunications.

At Cumilla Polytechnic Institute, Diploma in Electronics Technology is introduced at 1995 under Bangladesh Technical Education Board (BTEB), Agargaon, Dhaka. The BTEB developed the curriculum of Electronics Technology very time-appropriately. The Diploma in Electronics Technology program is a sequence of courses, consists of eight semesters including one semester industrial attachment, designed to prepare students for entry-level positions as electronic engineer. Learning opportunities develop academic, technical, and professional knowledge and skills required for job acquisition, retention, and advancement. The program emphasizes a combination of electronic theory and practical applications necessary for successful employment. Program graduates are to be competent in the general areas of communications, math, and interpersonal relations. In this brief message, I wish to introduce the Department of Electronics Technology and its dedicated and scholar faculty members, students, officers, laboratory assistants and technical and other staff in carrying out our various activities in achieving our program educational objectives and goals of the department.

We have no shortage of efforts to produce professionally qualified diploma engineers in electronics to meet up the challenges of the 21st century and to fulfill both national and international demand of diploma graduates by providing the quality education. We are proud of our students that they are achieving recognition in national and international competitions and job markets in the country and at abroad as well. The Electronics Department also encourages various extra- and co-curricular activities and organizes study tours, industrial visits, seminars, workshops etc. on regular basis.

As the Chief Instructor and Head of the Department of the Electronics Department, I am lucky enough to work with an excellent group of individuals who have common goals and commitments to improve teaching activities, to cut through the frontiers of Electronic Engineering fields to benefit the nation, the society and the mankind at large.
