GNDU to host 3-day International meet on electronics, AI from Dec 18

Guru Nanak Dev University is set to host a three-day international conference titled ‘Digital Innovation in Electronics, Communication and AI (DIECAI–2025)’ from December 18 to 20.

Being organised by the university’s Department of Electronics Technology, the conference is poised to position Amritsar as a significant hub of research in the fields of electronics, communication and artificial intelligence.

Speaking about the upcoming event, Prof Ravinder Kumar, conference convener and Head of the Department of Electronics Technology, said the event was dedicated to the 350th martyrdom anniversary of Guru Tegh Bahadur. He added that his teachings continue to inspire values of justice, compassion and human dignity.

“Guided by these principles, DIECAI–2025 emphasises that technological progress must be ethical, inclusive, sustainable and ultimately beneficial for all humanity. Aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the conference seeks to integrate cutting-edge research in electronics, communication and AI with global priorities such as climate action, reducing inequalities, building sustainable cities and promoting responsible innovation,” said Kumar.

Talking about various themes of the conference, the organising secretaries of the conference Dr Kuldeep Singh and Dr Rajandeep Singh said the international conference, being organised under RUSA 2.0, would host deliberations by globally renowned experts on emerging areas such as green electronics, 5G/6G technologies, sustainable IoT, zero-trust cybersecurity and ethical AI.

Researchers attending the event are expected to emphasise that Amritsar is poised to emerge as a rising hub of technological innovation and academic excellence.

Experts suggest that the next-generation of energy-efficient IoT devices could reduce carbon emissions in urban grids by 20 to 30 percent. The conference would also host workshops, panel discussions and networking sessions.
