Hello aspirant,

Electronics and Communication Engineering is an engineering subject that designs, develops, and tests electronic circuits and communication equipment. GATE ECE graduates work in many areas, such as telecommunications, aerospace, and automotive. They study digital and analog signal transmission and reception, microprocessors, communication tools, etc. while pursuing their M. Tech degree in electronics and communication engineering. ECE engineers can work as RF engineers, quality assurance engineers, communication engineers, and more.
