The programme ME (Power Electronics and Drives) offered by EEE department has established a good reputation in the field of power electronics, machines, with prominence in renewable energy and Electric Vehicle technology. Significant research arenas in power electronics include static power conversion, application of power electronics to improve the performance of power systems, renewable resources interface; magnetic, battery and flywheel energy storages and use of artificial intelligence and IoT in power electronics. Electric machines and drives comprise the aspects related to machine design and control, which includes electromagnetic 2D and 3D based design and analysis of electric motors, especially Switched Reluctance Motor, BLDC, Synchronous Reluctance drives for various industrial applications and intelligent motion control of electric drives.
Our objectives are to use the above experience to perform collaborative research with industry and to improve student outcome through teaching, research, development and training in the emerging technologies. The department is a recognized Research Centre of Anna University. The department consists of 27 academic faculty members along with 65 research scholars pursuing their PhD with a total research funding of more than Rs.1 Crore in the last two years. The faculty and students have published over 120 Journal papers in the last two years. All ME(PED) students participate in the research activity through their Internally Funded Project scheme and publish papers in refereed journals/conferences. The students are provided with ample opportunities for the training program of reputed industries, professional societies, research organizations and academic universities. The Institution is strategically located in the hub of electrical and automobile industries, that will bring more opportunities to the ME(PED) students.
