Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering Education

The Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering Education at the National Institute of Technical Teachers Training and Research (NITTTR), Bhopal, since its establishment in 1965, has consistently played a pivotal role in enhancing the professional development of technical teachers, industry professionals, and technical staff. The department has been conducting a wide array of short-term training programmemes (STTPs) in both contact and online modes, catering to participants from across India and other parts of the world. These training programmes focus on both content enrichment and pedagogical advancements in technical education.

In alignment with the evolving needs of academia and industries, the department has undertaken numerous curriculum innovation projects, laboratory-based training modules, research in engineering education, and the development of high-quality learning resources. It has also offered consultancy services and executed National and International level projects aimed at strengthening the technical education ecosystem. These efforts have significantly contributed to systemic improvements and upskilling initiatives across various states. Department faculty members also contributes in development and conduction of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs).

The Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering Education (DEEEE) offers a wide range of programmemes, including;

1. Ph.D.

2. M.Tech.

• M.Tech. in Green Technology
• M.Tech. in VLSI & Microelectronics

3. PG Diploma

• PG Diploma in Electric Vehicle Technology
• PG Diploma in Energy Harvesting and Storage

4. Diploma in Semiconductor Packaging (OSAT/ATMP)

These programmemes are designed to equip students and researchers with advanced knowledge and practical skills to address current and emerging challenges in the field of electrical and electronics engineering.

The department houses several state-of-the-art laboratories (CoE-OSAT, EV, VLSI, Mechatronics, Renewable Energy lab, etc.) and advanced software’s (MATLAB, Cadence, PSIM, etc.) and Centre of Excellence (CoE) that support hands-on training, interdisciplinary research, and product development.
