Tiruchi: Here is good news for Diploma holders with a year of work experience. Tiruchi Anna University is going to start part-time B.E. programmes in Electronics and Communication Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering and Mechanical Engineering, and B.Tech in Information Technology, from the coming academic year.
