In one paragraph

What is B.E. Electronics, Communication & Information at ICE?

Bachelor of Electronics, Communication and Information Engineering (BEI) at Imperial College of Engineering is a four-year, eight-semester degree awarded by Tribhuvan University and taught to the Institute of Engineering syllabus. ICE runs it at its Tathali campus in Bhaktapur with 48 seats an intake. The course follows an idea from circuit behaviour and measurement through embedded systems, digital signals, wireless communication and networked information, and it is the hardware side of the foundation that BCT starts from before turning toward computing. Measurement is central: students work on instrumentation and real signals rather than simulation alone. Seats are filled from the merit list of the IOE entrance examination, and +2 marks decide eligibility to sit that exam rather than rank in it. The fee band a student pays follows their entrance rank, and recognition by the Nepal Engineering Council follows the programme rather than the college.

Start with fit

Is Electronics Engineering right for you?

A hardware-aware engineering degree for students interested in circuits, signals, communication, embedded systems and the networks that carry information.

Five students working along a row of electronics trainers, probes and leads in hand — The degree starts by learning what a measurement can prove and what it cannot.

Move from a signal to a complete system.

Electronics Engineering connects careful measurement, hardware-software integration and the communication links that carry useful information.

Close view of electronics laboratory measurement equipment — Instrumentation I, Semester 4 — the real assignment is the trace that disagrees with your prediction.

01 · Measure

Circuits, signals and instruments

Make voltage, timing, frequency and noise visible, then learn what the measurement can actually prove.

Circuits
Signals
Instrumentation

Two students probing a trainer board with a hand-held multimeter — Year 3 connects embedded systems, control and communication.

02 · Build

Embedded and physical systems

Join sensors, processors and code so a device can read, decide and respond within real limits.

Microprocessors
Embedded systems
Control

A close view of the instruments and leads laid out on the electronics bench — Year 4 integrates instruments, signals and a defensible project outcome.

03 · Connect

Wireless and communication systems

Balance noise, bandwidth, range and power to move information through a complete communication chain.

Wireless
Antennas
Networks

The four-year journey

Each year connects more of the signal chain.

Open a year for representative subjects. The official TU/IOE syllabus remains the authority.

Students taking notes at the classroom benches during a session — Year 1 builds the common engineering foundation.

Practical learning

Predict it. Measure it. Debug what disagrees.

Bench work builds the discipline to test a circuit, question an unexpected trace and document how a complete system behaves.

Students bent over the instrumentation bench taking readings from a bench supply — Practical work is a sequence of prediction, assembly, measurement and correction.

Students in coveralls cutting and filing metal at the workshop vices — Shared workshop time connects electronics to the wider engineering environment.

An instructor talking a group of students through a reading at the laboratory apparatus — Direct guidance matters most when a reading disagrees with the expected result.

Where it can lead

Choose a direction through the systems you can test.

The degree can lead toward telecom, networks, embedded systems, IoT, electronics, broadcast or software-adjacent roles. A strong portfolio should show both technical depth and the ability to explain how a complete system was tested.

Network and ISP systems
Embedded systems and IoT
Broadcast and media systems
Software and systems roles

Questions students ask

Clear answers before a four-year decision.

Is this the same as electrical or computer engineering?

There is overlap in the foundations, but this degree places particular emphasis on electronics, signals, embedded systems, wireless communication and information networks. The curriculum section shows that progression in detail.

Is the curriculum shown here final?

It is an indicative year-by-year guide based on the current IOE structure. Tribhuvan University and the Institute of Engineering remain the authority for the official syllabus, subject codes and any revisions.

How do I get the current fee sheet?

Request the dated fee sheet from the admissions team. They will explain the current intake, payment schedule, scholarship conditions and any university charges before you make a decision.

Can I visit before applying?

Yes. Ask admissions to arrange a campus visit so you can see relevant learning spaces, discuss eligibility and bring a parent or guardian if you prefer.

Are scholarships available?

The merit award is built into the published fee rather than granted on top of it: a stronger IOE entrance rank places you in a lower fee band, and the amount published for that band is what you pay. The full structure is on the fees page, and you can check your own rank against it there.
