About us
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. Nine 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 the 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. A notable characteristic of this curriculum is the incorporation of the Minor Specialization/Honors in Energy Systems and Electric Vehicle Technologies. These specializations would provide students with the opportunity to customize their education, fostering interdisciplinary learning and the development of a comprehensive range of skills. 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.
