Message from the HoD

It is a pleasure to head the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at St.Thomas College of Engineering & Technology, Kozhuvalloor, Chengannur. Our Department was established in 2010. The Department seeks to combine excellence in education with service to the industry. As we know that we cannot imagine the world without electricity, and nowadays, the electrical and electronic devices have become an essential and inevitable part of our daily lives. Our goal is to provide students with a balance of intellectual and practical experiences that enable them to serve a variety of societal needs. The Department faculty have sound knowledge in emerging research areas like Adaptive & Robust control schemes for power electronic applications, High voltage Power system, Electrical machines and drives, Control of electric vehicle and energy management, Power system optimization and Active distribution networks, Energy management and Smart grid technologies. Our faculty members are continuing their respective research projects and publishing their research articles in reputed national and international journals. The department regularly organizes various professional development activities and grooms its students with the communication classes and personality development program.

The department is active in organizing the various workshops and seminars for the growth and development of faculty and students’ research knowledge further. Our department students are also highly encouraged to implement their innovative research ideas with the help of the expert faculty members and the standard research lab facilities in the department. Department constantly works for overall growth of students and inculcate the qualities that are required and acceptable by Society. Faculty/students take initiative for social causes at individual level and as a team under different banners/clubs of the Institute. Turning a student in to a good and proficient citizen is the prime aim of the department. The Electrical and Electronics Engineering graduate has a wide range of career opportunities in Electric Vehicle Industry, Power Industries, Government PSUs, IT industries, Electricity Boards, Telecommunication industries, Manufacturing industries, Private industrial firms, and Startup companies. I am sure in times to come; many students from our department will make indelible mark nationally and internationally in the field of Electrical Engineering and make us proud.
I am confident that the students of our department would justify the credibility of the department by showing a high level of professional competence in their respective field.
