Department of Electrical Engineering
About the Department
The department of Electrical
Engineering was established in 1935 with an intake of 20 students, and the
first graduate program started in 1940. A new phase of significant developments
in the department started during the third five-year plan. Currently, the department
is offering undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctorate programs in various specialized
disciplines of electrical engineering. Presently the total intake of the
B.Tech. program is 60, and the M. Tech program is 54. The department recently
started a new M.Tech. program in "Solar and Renewable Energy," with
an intake of 10 students. The department now runs one B.Tech. and four M.Tech.
Programs. The thrust areas of the department are Power Systems, Power
Electronics, Control, and High Voltage Engineering.
The faculty members have
published a significant number of research articles in reputed journals and
have also published several textbooks/edited books with reputed international
publishers. Many research projects sponsored by A.I.C.T.E, U.G.C., D.S.T., and
C.S.T. (U.P.) have been successfully completed. The first PhD in the Faculty of
Engineering & Technology, Aligarh Muslim University, was produced by this department
in 1977. Since then, many students have completed their PhD degrees in the department.
Further, the department's faculty members have published more than 1000 research
papers. The department organized one IEEE international conference in 2019. Many
Workshops/Seminars/Training programs have been successfully organized in the last
five years. Faculty members have chaired technical sessions of different
national and international meets and have been regular members of various
technical committees.
The department of Electrical
Engineering has sanctioned strength of 27 faculty members, and most faculty
members hold doctorates from reputed national and international institutes.
Faculty members have specialization in diverse fields of Electrical Engineering
such as Power systems, Electrical Machines, Electrical Drives, High Voltage
Engineering, Control systems, Instrumentation, Biomedical Engineering, Hybrid
Electric Vehicles, and Renewable sources of Energy.
