- 1. Thunderbird Vol I, Issue I Newsletter Department of Electrical Engineering School of Engineering Swami Vivekananda University conceptualized on the soil of West Bengal under Regent Education & Research Foundation Trust, a non-profit-making trust which has been set up to promote the professional education of highest standards and to encourage research and training activities so that the students, conferred with the degree can not only meet the professional challenges but also all the challenges life has to offer. In this era of economic liberalization, globalization and technological super advancements our motto is to put quality education in the light of Swamiji’s vision of spreading education throughout the society. Sustainable power systems, artificial intelligence, nanotechnology -electrical engineers are at the forefront of emerging technology. But not only that. They impact our daily lives in ways we rarely notice. From power grids to traffic lights and mobile phones, electrical engineers have a hand in those. Indeed, what would the world be without them? With that said, here are other ways electrical engineering has contributed to our society. From ancient Egyptians to Arabic naturalists to Benjamin Franklin, electricity had long fascinated humans even before they understood the phenomenon. Electrical engineering is a branch of science concerned with circuit theory, power system, electrical machines, power electronics, and control systems. Electrical Engineering deals with the understanding, designing of electrical and electronic devices and application of concepts to electricity. With the growing demand for Electrical Engineers in the core sectors of Government and private industries, the Department of Electrical Engineering of Swami Vivekananda University is making best efforts to produce highly trained, employable and capable technocrats who can take up the challenges of the real world. We encourage project or problem-based learning and emphasize on teaching the concept and not the mere facts. Students are not only prepared to develop the skill for tests but also to pursue the knowledge to innovate. We make a constant endeavour to inculcate the spirit of teamwork rather than group work. The Electrical Engineering Department has specialized faculties in all important areas of Electrical Engineering such as power system, power electronics & drives, control & automation, measurements, machines and signal processing. The academic and research activities in the department focus on the frontier areas of Electrical Engineering such as power quality studies, applications of microprocessors & microcontrollers, smart grid design, non-conventional energy sources and its system integration with the main power grid etc. Department of Electrical Engineering
