Students study charge/discharge characteristics, safety considerations, and performance optimization strategies.

Electromagnetic Compatibility and Interference

This course addresses issues related to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and compatibility (EMC) in electronic systems. Topics include shielding techniques, filtering methods, grounding practices, and regulatory compliance standards. Practical sessions involve EMI measurement and mitigation using specialized instruments.

Advanced Signal Processing Techniques

Signal processing is at the heart of many modern applications ranging from audio enhancement to biomedical diagnostics. This course covers advanced techniques such as wavelet transforms, adaptive filtering, and spectral estimation. Students apply these methods to real-world datasets using MATLAB and Python frameworks.

Machine Learning Applications

Merging artificial intelligence with electrical engineering opens new possibilities for automation and predictive analytics. This course explores supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms applied to signal processing, control systems, and power management. Students implement ML models for real-time data analysis and decision-making.

Project-Based Learning Philosophy

The department strongly advocates for project-based learning as a means of integrating theoretical knowledge with practical application. This approach encourages students to develop critical thinking skills, creativity, and teamwork abilities essential for professional success.

Mini-projects are undertaken during the third and fourth semesters, allowing students to apply concepts learned in core courses to real-world problems. These projects typically last 8–12 weeks and involve small groups working under faculty supervision. Students must submit detailed reports and present their findings to peers and faculty members.

The final-year thesis project is a comprehensive endeavor that spans the entire eighth semester. Students select a research topic aligned with their interests and career goals, often collaborating with industry partners or faculty researchers. The process involves literature review, experimental design, data collection, analysis, and documentation. A public defense session is conducted where students present their work to an evaluation panel consisting of faculty members and external experts.

Faculty mentors are assigned based on student preferences and project requirements. Each mentor guides one to two students throughout the duration of their project, providing technical support, feedback, and career guidance. Regular meetings ensure that progress aligns with project timelines and objectives.
