Electrical & Electronics Engineering

EEE Department Vision, Mission, Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)

About the Course:

Electrical & Electronics Engineering is a professional Engineering discipline that generally deals with the study and application of Electricity, Electronics, and Electromagnetism. This field first became an identifiable occupation in the latter half of the 19th century after commercialization of the Electric Telegraph, the telephone, and Electric Power Distribution. Subsequently, broadcasting and recording media made electronics, part of daily life. The invention of the transistor and later the integrated circuit brought down the cost of electronics to the point that can be used in almost all household applications.

Electrical & Electronics Engineering is broadly subdivided into a wide range of fields including Electronics, Digital Computers, Computer Engineering, Power Engineering, Telecommunications, Control Systems, Radio-Frequency Engineering, Signal Processing, Instrumentation, and Microelectronics. Many of these disciplines combine with other engineering branches, leads to several specialized areas such as

Hardware Engineering
Power Electronics
Electromagnetism & Waves
Renewable Energies &
Electrical Materials Science, etc.

Innovative Initiations :

Innovative teaching is a proactive approach to integrate new teaching strategies and methods into a classroom. It is regarded as the process to change teaching or learning activities that produce improvements in the learning outcomes. The teaching methodology is more student-centric. A primary motive of innovative teaching is to encourage students to engage actively in the learning process. When students interact with teachers and peers, they gain experience that is more practical and retain more information from a class.

The Department of EEE follows Innovative teaching methods that involve using creative methods and teaching-learning materials to ensure that each student is fully engaged in learning and is interactive in classrooms.
