About the Department

The Electrical Engineering Department came into existence in the year 1961, with the objective to produce technical man power of high quality and promote research and development activity. With a modest beginning of introducing four year Bachelor of Engineering (BE) degree programme in 1961, a post graduate programme in Electrical Machine / Power System / Control System was introduced in the year 1970-71.

Considering the under- graduate education as a vital and important component of its activities, the department started a BE degree programme in Computer Science for the first time in the country in 1976-77, which was later followed by other Colleges / Institutes. Envisioning the growth of Electronics and the consequent technical man power requirement, a BE (Electronics) course was introduced in the year 1982-83. With the three under graduate programmes, a Master's Course in Computer Application (MCA) in 1986 and several M. Tech. programmes (regular and part time) were introduced.

Currently, Electrical Engineering Department offers courses leading to a Bachelor of Technology in Electrical Engineering and Post Graduate (M. Tech.) and Ph.D programs in (i) Power Electronics & Drives (ii) Control & Instrumentation and (iii) Power System, under Regular, Part-Time and QIP categories. The EED has qualified and experienced faculty in all the related fields of Electrical Engineering viz. Electrical Power System, Electrical Machines, Control and Instrumentation and Power Electronics. The theoretical knowledge is further supplemented by six (6) well-equipped laboratories namely (i) Electrical Machine & Power Systems Lab (ii) Power Electronics & Drives Lab (iii) Computer Simulation Lab (iv) Measurement & Instrumentation Lab (v) Virtual Instrumentation Lab and (vi) Control Systems Lab.

The department has undertaken a number of research projects/schemes with the financial assistance from MNRE, DST and MHRD etc., including international collaborative research projects. The department is also actively engaged in research, consultancy and testing in the emerging areas of Electrical Engineering. The Department has been recognized as QIP centre for Ph.D. for engineering and polytechnic colleges' faculty members.
