CEDT is located in the eastern part of the IISc campus behind Mathematics department. The other nearby departments are:

1. Combustion, Gasification and Propulsion Laboratory
2. Center for Oceanic & Atmospheric Sciences

The course structure is designed to inculcate system level understanding among the students. Most of the M.Tech. projects are sponsored by companies and result in hardware electronic products. Some of the students later transform their knowledge into commercial ventures like Gamma Porite.{{cite web |url=http://epaper.timesofindia.com/Repository/ml.asp?Ref=VE9JQkcvMjAxMi8wNy8wNSNBcjAxMzAw |title=LED it shine, more efficiently |website=The Times of India |access-date=14 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304092550/http://epaper.timesofindia.com/Repository/ml.asp?Ref=VE9JQkcvMjAxMi8wNy8wNSNBcjAxMzAw |archive-date=4 March 2016 |url-status=dead}}

The CEDT Design Expo[http://www.dese.iisc.ernet.in/expo12/]{{dead link|date=November 2016 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} is the design exposition organised by the center every year in the month of June. In the expo, the M.Tech. students display the product designed by them as part of the two-year master's program. The display normally has a live demonstration of the product followed by discussions. The event is attended by various experts from the industry. The event is open to all.{{cite web |url=http://www.ti.com/ww/in/newsletter/UniTI_newsletter_v2_issue_4.pdf |title=Archived copy |website=ti.com |access-date=14 January 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121008172547/http://www.ti.com/ww/in/newsletter/UniTI_newsletter_v2_issue_4.pdf |archive-date=8 October 2012 |url-status=dead}}{{cite news| url=http://www.hindu.com/2009/06/27/stories/2009062758540200.htm | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090701021514/http://www.hindu.com/2009/06/27/stories/2009062758540200.htm | url-status=dead | archive-date=1 July 2009 | location=Chennai, India | work=The Hindu | title=A forum for student-industry interaction | date=27 June 2009}}
