The department of Electrical Engineering came into existence along with the establishment of the institution in the year 1979.It is now headed by Prof.V.Muralidhara M.E., supported by a highly qualified and dedicated staff.

In this age of development in technology it is we the electrical & electronics engineers who hold the key to development with our horizon ranging from power generation to microprocessors. Founded in 1979, the department boasts of well equipped labs & a well qualified faculty. The department has endeavored in organizing regular field trips to various industries hence giving ample industrial exposure, thus integrating practical & theoretical knowledge.

To develop the overall personality of the students the Electrical Engineering Association (EEA) was formed. EEA holds various seminars, technical talks & personality development programs. Several technical institutions like CPRI, PRDA etc. have conducted various lectures & workshops. To add to the credibility of the department various project papers have been acknowledged by the industry. Thus the department has been successful in providing the students with the requisite knowledge required for a successful career.
