Course Information & Syllabus
Electrical & Electronics Engineering
Electrical & Electronics Engineering is one of the core branches of engineering studies started as Electrical Engineering. Most of the branches like Electronics & (Tele) Communication Engineering, Computer Science & Engineering, Applied Electronics, Electronics & Instrumentation, Information Technology have been emerged as specialization from Electrical Engineering. However, with the wide applications of Electronics in controlling and protecting the Electrical equipments and systems, the course has been renamed as Electrical & Electronics Engineering.
The major thrust in this course is related to the basic principles and detailed analysis of different types of equipments and systems for generation, transmission, distribution and utilization of Electrical Energy. The course also covers the study of electronic devices and circuits involved in measurement, instrumentation, control and protection of electrical equipments and conversion systems. Concept of computer and recent applications of computer based systems in design, analysis and efficient operation of power system, maintaining quality and security is also included in the course.
Job Opportunities:
Electrical & Electronics engineering graduates find jobs in power stations, whether atomic, hydro or thermal power plants and in large industries as engineers and managers. An electrical engineer is responsible for installation, maintenance and operation of power handling equipments and systems. Industries manufacturing large electrical machines and equipments employ electrical & electronics engineers in design, production and testing of electrical equipments. They get jobs in public and private sector industries such as railways, civil aviation, and all types of manufacturing plants. They can also get into teaching in India or abroad or continue with research in laboratories.
