Electrical Engineering is concerned with the study and application of electricity, electronics and electromagnetism, dealing with the large-scale electrical systems such as power generation transmission, controlled distribution and utilization.

The Department of electrical engineering is one of the oldest and prestigious departments of the university supported with highly qualified faculty and modern laboratories namely:

• Applied electricity
• Power electronics and control
• Electrical Machines
• Equipment and training
• Instrumentation and measurement
• Power Systems
• Calibration and energy conservation
• Computer centre

These labs serve not only undergraduates and postgraduate students but they also provide services to the public and private sectors like training, equipment testing calibration and consultancy services. Besides normal academic activities, the department’s faculty and students are involved in research and development activities in collaboration with industries.

The department has 27 full-time faculty members. Several faculty members have won prestigious awards for their teaching and research work.

Our undergraduate and postgraduate students are drawn from across the country as well as from abroad. Degrees are conferred to the undergraduate students on successful completion of a four year degree program. Postgraduate students receive M.E. degree after successful completion of 18-month Postgraduate Diploma program and research work. Currently, 500 undergraduate, 67 postgraduate and 04 Ph.D students are enrolled in the department.

The undergraduate program emphasizes teaching electrical engineering fundamentals and applications as well as advanced engineering studies, enabling young graduates to work in industry or pursue higher education with great confidence. Our graduate engineers are given top priority in the public and private sectors.
