Advanced Departmental Electives
Departmental electives in Electrical Engineering offer students the opportunity to specialize and gain expertise in niche areas that align with their career aspirations. These courses are designed to provide in-depth knowledge and practical skills required for advanced engineering roles.
Power Electronics and Drives
This elective course focuses on the design, analysis, and application of power electronic converters used in industrial drives and renewable energy systems. Students learn about various topologies such as DC-DC converters, AC-DC rectifiers, and inverters. The course includes hands-on laboratory sessions where students build prototype circuits and test their performance under different load conditions.
Microprocessor Architecture and Assembly Language Programming
This course delves into the architecture of modern microprocessors, focusing on instruction set design, memory management, and peripheral interfacing. Students gain proficiency in assembly language programming and learn how to optimize code for performance and efficiency. Practical labs involve designing embedded systems using microcontrollers like ARM Cortex-M series processors.
Control Systems Design
Control Systems Design is an advanced course that explores mathematical modeling, stability analysis, and controller design techniques for complex industrial processes. Topics include state-space representation, frequency domain methods, digital control systems, and robust control theory. Students apply these concepts to real-world scenarios through simulation-based projects using MATLAB/Simulink.
Digital Signal Processing
Students explore advanced signal processing techniques used in audio, video, and telecommunications applications. The course covers topics such as digital filters, Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), wavelet transforms, and adaptive filtering algorithms. Laboratory sessions involve implementing DSP algorithms using digital signal processors (DSPs) and software tools like MATLAB.
Electromagnetic Compatibility

Students learn to model large-scale power networks and simulate transient behaviors using specialized software tools like PSS/E and ETAP. Case studies from Indian power systems are included to enhance practical understanding.
Project-Based Learning Philosophy
The department emphasizes project-based learning as a cornerstone of its educational approach. Students begin working on projects from their second year, gradually increasing complexity and independence as they progress through the program.
Mini Projects
Mini projects are assigned in the third and fourth semesters, allowing students to apply theoretical concepts in practical settings. These projects are typically completed within 3-4 weeks and involve small teams of 3-5 students. Projects are evaluated based on innovation, technical execution, presentation quality, and peer feedback.
Final Year Thesis/Capstone Project
The final year thesis is a significant undertaking that spans six months and requires students to conduct independent research or solve a real-world engineering problem. Students select their projects in consultation with faculty advisors, ensuring alignment with current industry trends and academic interests. The project culminates in a formal presentation and a detailed written report.
Project Selection Process
Students can choose from a list of pre-approved projects provided by faculty members or propose their own ideas after discussion with advisors. Projects are categorized into three levels: theoretical, experimental, and applied research. Each project is assigned a mentor who guides the student throughout the process.
