ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT

The Diploma in Electrical Engineering and Electric Vehicle Technology was introduced from the Academic Year 2025–26 with an intake of 60 students. The programme is specially designed to empower students, including those with hearing impairment and locomotor disabilities, by equipping them with strong technical knowledge and practical skills to meet the demands of the modern technological world.

This programme aims to provide comprehensive professional training in core Electrical Engineering subjects along with emerging Electric Vehicle (EV) technologies. It integrates fundamental electrical concepts with advanced applications such as renewable energy systems, battery technology, motor control, power electronics, charging infrastructure, and EV maintenance and diagnostics.

The curriculum is structured to develop analytical thinking, problem-solving abilities, technical competence, and industry readiness. Emphasis is placed on hands-on laboratory practice, workshop training, industrial exposure, and project-based learning to ensure students gain real-world experience. Professional ethics, safety standards, sustainability practices, and innovation are key components embedded within the programme.

Electrical Engineering forms the backbone of industrial and infrastructural development, while Electric Vehicle Technology represents the future of sustainable transportation. By combining these two dynamic fields, the department prepares students to contribute effectively to power generation, transmission, automation, electric mobility, and green energy sectors.

The programme focuses on skill enhancement, specialization, and technical excellence to nurture competent diploma engineers who can adapt to rapidly evolving technologies. It also supports personality development, communication skills, and entrepreneurship to make students confident professionals.

At present, the programme has transitioned from an Outcome-Based Education (OBE) system to a Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS) to promote flexibility, goal-oriented learning, and student-centered education. This transformation ensures that learners can explore interdisciplinary opportunities and align their education with industry requirements and career aspirations.
