In the present era of rapid industrialization, it is strongly felt that the field of Power and Industrial Drives (PID) is gaining momentum. Moreover, owing to continuous and intensive research in the field of Power Semiconductor Devices in India as well as in foreign countries, tremendous changes and new concepts have been evolved. Hence, to cope with the rapid changes, it is highly essential on the part of technocrats who are in this field to have updated knowledge to cater the requirements of industry in a right direction. The scope of power electronic controllers have been widened due to the developments of advanced topologies of electrical machines. This has contributed to further developments in the field of Electrical Engineering. Therefore, taking all the above mentioned developments and changes into account a post graduate (PG) programme in Electrical Engineering has been introduced in the department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at GMR institute of Technology since 2007. This Post Graduate programme focuses mainly on imparting theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of power electronics and its applications to electrical machines, drives, industrial equipments, and power systems. Special Emphasis on design, modeling and analysis of conventional and advanced electrical machines is also given in this program.
