The The Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) was established in 2004 with the B.Tech program. Over the past two decades, the department has expanded its academic offerings, research initiatives and infrastructure to meet the evolving requirements of the power, energy, electronics and automation sectors. In 2019, the M.Tech program in Electrical Power Systems was introduced, further strengthening the department’s focus on advanced power engineering education and research.
Aligned with emerging industry trends and AICTE guidelines, the department offers specialized pathways and industry-oriented elective streams in:
- Smart Grids and Renewable Energy Systems
- Electric Vehicles and Energy Storage Technologies
- Power Electronics and Industrial Automation
The B.Tech program in EEE has been accredited by the National Board of Accreditation (NBA) successively for five consecutive terms in 2013, 2016, 2019, 2022 and 2025. The M.Tech program in Electrical Power Systems was also accredited by the NBA in the year 2025.The period of NBA accreditation validity for both B.Tech program in EEE in Tier-I (Washington Accord) and M.Tech program in EPS is till 30 June, 2028.
The department has well-established academic laboratories viz., Electrical Machines Laboratory, Control Systems Laboratory, Network Analysis and Synthesis Laboratory, Analog and Digital Circuits Laboratory, Microprocessors & Microcontrollers Laboratory, Measurements & Instrumentation Laboratory, Power Electronics & Drives Laboratory, PLC and Industrial Automation Laboratory, Power System Protection Laboratory, Power Systems Laboratory, High Voltage Engineering Laboratory, Power System Simulation Laboratory and Renewable Energy Systems Laboratory. Regular infrastructure upgrades, modern simulation tools and an innovation-driven environment support excellence in teaching, learning and interdisciplinary research.
The students are nurtured with a variety of active learning activities including and not restricted to classroom teaching, presentations, video lectures, MOOC courses, minor / honors courses, experiential learning (Exeed), and online courses delivered by faculty in the institute and across the globe.
Skills and Competences:
Considering the potential expertise, an Electrical and Electronics Engineering B.Tech graduate should have at least four or more of the following competences:
- Design, analysis and implementation of electrical systems
- Expertise in power system planning, protection and control
- Embedded system programming and hardware interfacing
- Proficiency in power converters, drives and industrial electronics

The Electrical Engineers Technical Association (EETA) actively contributes to the academic enrichment and professional growth of students by organizing a wide array of co-curricular and extracurricular activities aimed at strengthening technical proficiency, leadership, and communication skills. Its initiatives encompass workshops, seminars, expert lectures, industrial visits, technical tours, paper and poster presentation platforms, as well as technical quizzes, group discussions, and coding or simulation competitions. EETA also supports students through career guidance programs and training for competitive examinations. These efforts are complemented by vibrant student chapters such as the IEEE Power & Energy Society (PES), the Indian Society for Technical Education (ISTE), and the Institution of Engineers (IEI), which together provide valuable avenues for networking, research exposure and comprehensive professional development.
M. Tech (Electrical Power Systems):
Electrical Power Systems is a two year full time post-graduate program approved by the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE). The department offers full time M.Tech program in Electrical Power Systems with an intake of 6, selected through GATE / TS PGECET.
The department has a top-level quality assessment rating for teaching, and a world-class reputation for research. Learners are matured in a specific area of specialization by extending their prior knowhow through meticulous set of advanced courses with a dissertation to showcase their research potential.
