Program Objective:More than 10000 students are receiving bachelor degree in engineering every year in Chhattisgarh from various institutes. It is well known that in Chhattisgarh there is a dominance of core sector industries like Steel, Cement, and Power etc. These industries require a good number of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. Chhattisgarh would become 2nd largest power supplier in India in the coming days. Looking forward to this many of the students want to opt a master's degree for a batter career growth. Also having a MTech. degree allows them to pursue various other professions such as research & development, teaching, etc.
Scope of Power Electronics and Power System: Power Electronics and Power System are the two highest demanded domains in Electrical & Electronics Engineering field. Power Electronics is also one of the most vital research and development topic in industries and institutions. The field of Power Electronics and Power System is changing very rapidly. Developments of advanced topologies of electrical machines have also widened the scope of power electronic controllers with smart-grid. This program focuses on imparting education in the field of power electronics and its applications in electrical machines, drives, industrial equipment, and power systems.
Program Outline: The proposed program provides the breadth of domains covering all the layers of Power electronics and power system. This course includes subjects like Advance power electronics, SMPS, Converters, Power system design & analysis, Relay Technologies, smart-grid and energy management, etc.
The proposed program consists of four semesters. The first year syllabus is aimed at providing a solid conceptual foundation of the recent developments in various frontier domains of Power Electronics and Power System. In the second year students can choose various technology tracks for the project and research work. It will equip students with a distinctive opportunity to undertake innovative research and project work in collaboration with various government agencies and private organizations. Students are expected to undergo the research/project work in an external organization. They will be encouraged to take up live problems and innovative projects that lead to entrepreneurship.

Scholarships and teaching/research assistantships are available for deserving meritorious students. Minimum requirement for scholarships is a score of 75% and above in the Qualifying exam. Each scholarship application will be evaluated by the Scholarship Committee. The scholarships are given on an annual basis. To continue the scholarships after the first year, the student will have to maintain a minimum prescribed academic performance during the course of the programme.
Assistantships require students to commit minimum of 8 hours of work per week outside regular academic work, assisting professors on teaching or research projects. Typically an assistantship could pay a stipend of Rs. 12,000 per month depending on the type and quality of work undertaken.
Continuation of assistantship during each semester is contingent upon satisfactory academic performance and satisfactory performance in the discharge of responsibilities assigned under the scheme.
