DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING
With the rapid industrialization, the demand for electricity also increases. To bridge the gap between supply and demand, power production is thrown open to the private sector. At SMVEC, the Electrical & Electronics department endeavors to produce high caliber Electrical Engineers to curtail this gap. The Electrical & Electronics department has excellent infrastructures. It has a well equipped AC and DC Machinery Lab. It is equipped with Modern Measurements & Control Lab, digital electronics Lab, Power Electronics Lab, Microcontroller lab, Microprocessor Lab & power system Simulation Lab.
