Department of Electrical Engineering
Overview
Electrical Engineering was created since the establishment of the institute as Tripura Engineering College (TEC), a state engineering college in the year 1965, which is now National Institute of Technology, Agartala. It has been converted from TEC to NIT, Agartala with effect from the 1st April 2006, though the Union Cabinet approved the proposal of the state government for conversion of TEC to National Institute of Technology on 23rd February ‘2006.Electrical Engineering department offers an 8- semester B.Tech programme in “Electrical Engineering” with 90 intake capacity and a 4-semester M.Tech programme in Power Electronics & Drives , Power System Engineering and Instrumentation Engineering with 10(ten) intake capacity for each specialization. Parallely department is providing Ph.D. degree especially in Instrumentation, Power System, Power Quality, Renewable Energy e.t.c.
Programmes
Under Graduate Prograammes:
B.Tech. in Electrical Engineering(4 years)
This course aims at providing all the facilities for producing technocrats with sound knowledge in all the subjects such as electrical machines, power systems, instrumentation etc. including the elective papers with a strong background of practical knowledge relevant to the theory papers. Graduates coming out will be able to orient themselves to take up any challenging jobs in the industry and also will be able to carry out research and developmental activities with innovative ideas. The students are assigned with a major project during the end semesters where they carry out the developmental work under the guidance /supervision of the staffs.
Post Graduate Programmes: Electrical Engineering department provide M.Tech degree in following branches. It aims at providing all the facilities for training graduate engineers in the field of Power Electronics & Drives, Power System Engineering and Instrumentation Engineering, so that the students will be confident enough to undertake responsibility, research & consultancy work in their respective field. The students are assigned with a major project during the 3rd & 4th semesters where they carry out the developmental work under the guidance /supervision of the staffs to strengthen their knowledge in that respective field of work.
