1.    M.Tech. (Industrial Drives & Control)

The nature of programme is full-time with duration of course being four semesters (i.e. two years). This is an unique course of its kind in Central India, specifically in Nagpur & Amravati University areas. The main objective of the course is to provide an opportunity to graduate engineers for enhancing their skills which will open career avenues for them in Industries, R&D Institutes, and Teaching field.

Salient features of the course:

   1.  Focus on extensive computer application in Electrical Drives & its Control.

         2. DC/AC Drives – Analysis and Computer Aided Design.

       3.  Expert Lectures from renowned institutions and industry.

       4. Industry based dissertations.

2.    Faculty

Electrical Engineering Department of the Institute has very rich faculty in the area of Electrical Engineering specially Power Electronics & Drives. Faculty group is composed of one Professor with Doctorate Degrees, four faculty members are engaged in Doctoral research work, and nine  faculty members are with Post-Graduate Qualifications.

3.   Collaboration

The institute has established collaborations with VNIT Nagpur and some private engineering colleges. Institute is closely working with the utility like Maharashtra State Electricity Generating Company, National Power Training Institute and Industries in nearby industrial area. These collaborations will be also useful for getting assignments for industry oriented dissertations for the post-graduate course in Electrical Drives & Power Electronics areas.
