Course Overview

The online program in Antennas by Swayam primarily focuses on helping learners gain an in-depth understanding of Antennas and their varying types. These include the Monopole, Slot, Loop, Dipole, Reflector, Horn, Helical, Log-Periodic, Yagi-Uda, Microstrip, Linear, Planar, MSA Antennas. The course curriculum also comprises robust support from the space organization, telecom industry, and defense industry.

This 12-week elective training in the ‘Communications Engineering, Electronics, and Electrical’ category focus on undergraduates and postgraduates. The Antennas certification syllabus imparts impeccable knowledge about core areas such as the various Antenna types, IE3D Session TA, MSA Arrays, Circular MSAs, and MSA Parametric Analysis. The curriculum also offers a term-end lab session for students to experience hands-on skills.

While the AICTE-approved Antennas program is free-to-learn, candidates can opt to register for Swayam’s proctored assessment to earn the e-verified certificate. To do so, they must clear the specific criteria to pass the examination. Once they do, aspirants will receive the valuable certification, carrying IIT Bombay and NPTEL’s logos to verify their learned skills.

Evaluation process

The Antennas certification mandates students to appear for Swayam’s term-end proctored evaluation, which they will conduct via two sessions (morning and afternoon), in one of the designated test centres. For this, candidates must fill up the online registration form once it’s out, and pay the exam’s required fees. 

Candidates must score 10/25 on their in-course assignments and 30/75 on the proctored test. If they score 40/100 or more without fulfilling this criterion, Swayam won’t grant them a certificate. The final score will depend on the candidate’s examination score added to their average assignment score.
