M. Tech. in Energy Science and Technology
Graduate Programme
The Department offers a graduate programme of four years (Eight Semesters) leading to B.E. (Electrical & Electronics) degree. The programme has an intake of 60 students per year. The programme is regularly upgraded by introducing new electives and compulsory courses.
Postgraduate Programme
M.Tech in Energy Science and Technology is an interdisciplinary program, combining science & technology from electrical, mechanical, environmental and electronic & communication engineering. The programme offers an insight to interdisciplinary & complexity of energy issues/devices/processes and imparts methods & solutions from various subject domains. This will be a unique program that provides an in-depth understanding of different fields including solar, wind energy, biogas & bio mass, electricity storage, electric vehicles, sustainability, reliability, O&M of SPV and wind plants, energy management etc. Through this course, students are introduced to science and technology associated with energy, along with the insights on waste to energy recovery. The program also focuses upon the recent topics as Green Building (sustainable construction) and Smart Grids, Microgrids and IOT applications in energy systems. Further, the graduates from this programme shall find job opportunities in energy management in different sectors viz. Industry, agriculture, transportation, construction, commercial, etc. including academia and R&D labs. The program will also focus on equipping students to become entrepreneurs and take-up consultancy. This program provides an opportunity to students of different engineering disciplines to work together.
Research Programme
The department is a recognized Research Centre of Visveswaraya Technological University Belagavi and offers Ph.D and M.SC Engg. by research programs. 13 candidates have been awarded Ph.D degree and currently 10 scholars are registered. The department is also a recognized QJP centre of MoE, Gol. Institute library is a member of VTU consortium, DELNET and N-LIST. Through this research scholars have access to 10,300 e-journals.
Professional Activities
Co-curricular and Extracurricular activities help students to build professional personality. The department has established BEC-Renewable Energy Activity Chapter (REACH) to popularize the concept of renewable energy devices. It would emphasize on the working and usage of renewable energy sources like solar, wind and biomass in day-to-day life. EEE Student Branch, IEEE Power & Energy Student Chapter and EEEA encourage students to participate in co-curricular and extracurricular activities, student conferences, project exhibitions, etc. They also arrange invited technical talks by experts, honours/ rewards staff and student achievers, conducts E&EE Alumni meet, student project exhibition, etc
Key Activities
The facilities are created to encourage students of UG and PG to carry out innovative projects and applications. Other key activities are: identification, Operation and Performance testing of Solar thermal devices (Boiler cooker, Water heater, Drier, Still, Concentration dish cooker) and Solar PV devices. Garden lighting, Street lighting).
