Comprehensive Course Catalogue

The curriculum for the Electrical Engineering program at Dr Preeti Global University Shivpuri spans 8 semesters with a structured progression from foundational sciences to advanced specializations. Each semester includes core courses, departmental electives, science electives, and laboratory components designed to ensure comprehensive skill development.

Detailed Departmental Elective Courses

The following are advanced departmental elective courses offered in the Electrical Engineering program:

• Advanced Power Electronics and Drives: This course covers modern power electronic converters, motor drives, and their applications in renewable energy systems. Students learn to design and analyze high-efficiency power conversion circuits using simulation tools like MATLAB/Simulink.
• Smart Grid Technologies: Focuses on integrating distributed generation sources into the grid, demand response management, and grid stability issues. The course includes practical labs involving real-time monitoring systems and predictive analytics.
• Wireless Communication Systems: Covers wireless channel modeling, modulation techniques, error correction codes, and mobile communication standards such as 4G LTE and 5G NR. Lab sessions include hands-on experience with software-defined radios (SDRs).
• Signal Processing for Image and Video Applications: Explores image enhancement, compression algorithms, pattern recognition, and computer vision techniques. Students work on projects involving MATLAB-based image processing and deep learning networks.
• Electromagnetic Compatibility and Interference Control: Addresses EMC standards, measurement techniques, and design practices for ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in electronic systems. Includes lab work on spectrum analyzers and EMI testing equipment.
• Renewable Energy Integration and Storage Systems: Examines the challenges of integrating renewable sources into power grids and managing energy storage technologies like batteries and supercapacitors. Students engage in case studies involving large-scale solar installations and battery management systems.
• Advanced Microcontroller Programming: Builds upon introductory microcontroller courses, focusing on embedded C programming, real-time operating systems (RTOS), and hardware-software co-design for IoT applications.
• Control Systems with Robotics Applications: Combines control theory with robotics to develop autonomous mobile robots. Students design controllers for robot navigation and manipulation tasks using Arduino and Raspberry Pi platforms.
• Power System Protection and Relaying: Covers protective relays, fault analysis, and system protection strategies in power networks. Practical components include relay setting calculations and protection system simulations.
• Industrial Automation and PLC Programming: Teaches programmable logic controllers (PLCs), industrial communication protocols, and automation systems used in manufacturing plants. Students build complete automation setups in laboratory environments.

Project-Based Learning Philosophy

Our approach to project-based learning emphasizes critical thinking, problem-solving, and innovation. From the second year onwards, students are introduced to mini-projects that help them apply theoretical knowledge in practical scenarios. These projects typically span 2–4 weeks and are evaluated based on design documentation, technical execution, presentation quality, and peer review.

The final-year thesis/capstone project is a significant component of the curriculum, requiring students to undertake an original research or development task under faculty supervision. The project can be either academic in nature or industry-sponsored, allowing students to explore topics relevant to current market trends or societal needs.

Students select their projects and mentors based on personal interest, career goals, and available resources. Faculty members guide students throughout the process, providing technical advice, feedback on progress, and support in preparing final presentations and reports. The capstone project culminates in a formal defense session before a panel of experts from academia and industry.
