Electronics is the study, application and control of the scientific phenomena concerned with the flow of electrical current. Fluids, gases, semiconductors, vacuum, semi or super conducting materials are electrical conductors. Based on this phenomenon a variety of electronic products have been developed which have had countless applications. Telecommunications is a very important and fast growing industry. From the telephone to the voice processing equipments, touchtone telephones, cellular technology, wireless technology, microwave and satellite communication systems, to the linking of computers and telephone lines the progress has been swift and efficient. The Internet is an example of a vaste global computer network, with computers linked by wires, fibreoptics, cables, microwave and satellite communication links. Products made by the electronics industry are for use in four different areas.

The first area is defence and space programmes, communications systems, medical technology, traffic control devices etc. primarily for government sector. The second area comprises of industrial products which include large scale computers radio and television broadcasting equipment, telecommunications equipment, electronic office equipment, testing and measuring instruments, radiation detection devices, electronics instruments for nuclear work and industrial control and processing equipment.

The third area where electronics are used is for consumer products, e.g., music compact disc players, televisions, radios, video games, VCRs, personal computers, electronic ovens etc.

The fourth category comprises of electronic components such as integrated circuits, microprocessors, transistors, relays, microchip television picture tubes, amplifiers etc.

The vast application of electronics and the rapid advancements in the field of telecommunications makes the study of electronic engineering / electronic and telecommunication engineering a coveted option.
