Electrical engineering is a professional career that utilizes mathematics, science, technology and problem solving skills to design, construct and maintain products and services that underpin today‘s modern society. It is a rapidly advancing area which is both challenging and exciting, as well as being a rewarding field in which to study.

The wide application of electronics and automation in modern industries for controlling and protecting the static and dynamic electrical machines has generated the requirement to develop a course in Electrical and Electronics Engineering. The department is training the students as per the requirements of Electricity Boards and industries for installation, maintenance, operation of power handling equipments and systems, design, production and testing. The faculty has a good exposure of Power and Automation industries. 

Electrical engineering is a major area of expertise behind control and automation, telecommunications, signal processing, analogue and digital electronics, and power generation and distribution. It is also becoming increasingly vital in countries trying to improve their capacity in new and emerging fields such as nano-technology, robotics and renewable energy. Some organizations offer scholarships or cadetships for trainees, and many students are offered jobs before completing their degrees.  [ Click for Course Structure ]
