To sustain the planned

growth in the power sec-

tor, the industry needs

human capital trained in

electrical engineering. The

Electrical Engineering De-

partment is contributing to

this need by producing

trained technology lead-

ers. Department of Electri-

cal Engineering came into

existence in the year July

2001 with intake of 59

students in Under gradu-

ate. The department has a

goal of providing excel-

lence in technical educa-

tion. The department

started AICTE approved

Masters program in Power

Systems in the year 2013

with an intake of 24 stu-

dents.

Mission: To produce

engineers who under-

stand the principles

that underlie modern

electrical technology &

apply them to problems

arising in whatever

career path they choose.
