Electrical & Electronics Engineering

About the Department

The Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering was established in 2002 with Undergraduate Programme B.E. Electrical and Electronics Engineering. The programme was accredited by NBA in 2011. Postgraduate Programme M.E. Power Systems Engineering was introduced in 2013. The Department has become a recognised research centre of Anna University in 2015. Department has successfully completed two consultancy projects and two more projects are in progress. Our Alumni are placed in prestigious organisations like Host International Electrical LLC-Sharjah, Amazon-USA, Infosys, CTS, L&T, Bosch, San Engg. Locomotives and so on

The Department received funding from AICTE to modernise Electrical Machines lab with state-of-the-art instruments and machines. It also received funding from AICTE to conduct Seminar and Faculty development Programme. Funding was received to conduct Faculty development Programme from ISTE too. Department has a young and energetic team of 13 faculty members with an average experience of 8 years. Two of them are Ph.D. holders, one has submitted his Ph.D and Six are pursuing their Ph.D. Department has secured Prizes for students Projects in Texas Innovation Contest. Recently, Solar lab was established and Students Project carried out using this facility was selected for display in Elecrama


    Department has the following future plans to make the institution globally visible.
  • The Department will take sincere efforts to involve in funded Research Projects in the emerging areas such as Smart grid, Renewable energy systems and also in Control and Instrumentation
  • The Department will organize International Conferences/Symposia in collaboration with Professional Societies and Foreign Universities.
  • Industry attached research laboratories will be established to promote research oriented projects
  • Interaction with Alumni and eminent personalities from IITs, IISC, NITs etc. will be strengthened for enriching the skills of faculty and students.
  • Modern Teaching Practices such as Video Lectures, Flipped Classrooms and Virtual Laboratories will be adopted with the focus on improving Self-learning, Peer learning and Collaborative learning.
  • More Entrepreneurship initiatives will be taken.
  • Motivational Initiatives will be enhanced to facilitate the students to participate in design contest, project display etc. and receive awards and recognitions by National / International agencies and Technical Societies.

Message from Head of Department

The Department of Electrical Engineering was formed with the primary objective of providing world class education in the field of Electrical Engineering, while addressing the problems of today and tomorrow. Right from its inception, the department has been offering excellent infrastructural facilities with a variety of platforms for aspiring professional students to meet the growing demands of the Electrical industry.

The department endeavours to produce confident professionals tuned to real time working environment. The department offers excellent academic environment with a team of highly qualified faculty members to inspire the students to develop their technical skills and inculcate the spirit of team work in them. The strength of the department lies in the highly motivated students who understand the dynamics of the industry and hone their skills accordingly. We focus on bridging the gap between campus education and industry needs through internships, guest lectures and workshops.
