The Department of Electrical Engineering at IUST was established in 2012. It currently offers one undergraduate program awarding a Bachelor of Technology (B. Tech) degree in electrical engineering. Six batches of electrical engineers have graduated since the inception of the department. In 2018, a Ph.D. program was started. The department has state-of-the-art infrastructural facilities to provide its students education and training aligned to its mission. The faculty is well qualified and dedicated, having received training and education at reputed institutions within the country. Students entering the undergraduate program are provided basic training in analysis and design of electrical energy systems, including, broadly, systems employed for generation, transmission, control and conversion of electrical energy. It is also ensured that students gain sufficient general knowledge in related disciplines of electrical and computer sciences, so that they remain capable of obtaining a specialized degree in their area of interest. The Department has a well equipped facility for giving students hands-on training and exposure in all fundamental technologies that are a part of a standard graduate level electrical engineering course, like electromechanical energy conversion, power systems, control systems, computation and simulation etc. All labs are Wi-Fi enabled and have a 24x7 uninterrupted power supply. The department also has a well-equipped departmental library with a good collection of basic and advanced books in electrical engineering and allied subjects.
