Telecommunications Engineering Programme at NED University of Engineering and Technology was started in February 2003. The Programme was formerly managed by Electrical Engineering Department. It remained under administration of Electronic Engineering Department from July, 2007 to June 2021. In June 2021 University decided to establish an independent Department of Telecommunications Engineering.

At Undergraduate Level, the Department offers Bachelors of Engineering in Telecommunications. At Postgraduate level, it offers Master of Engineering Degree in Telecommunications, Evening Programme under two specializations namely RF Engineering and Telecommunication Networks. The Department also offers Master of Science weekend Programme in Telecommunication systems. The faculty is actively involved in research activities currently there are 10+ students enrolled in PHD Programme under Supervision of Telecommunications Faculty.
Permanent affiliation followed in February 1927.
