B.Tech Electrical Engineering
B.Tech (Electrical Engineering)
The BTech Electrical Engineering course at Chandigarh University, Uttar Pradesh, is built around one clear goal: turning theory into real & usable skills. The curriculum covers the kind of problems the power and energy sector is actually facing right now, rather than sticking to a fixed, outdated syllabus. Students get specialised exposure across four genuinely relevant areas - Power Systems and Renewable Energy, Electric Vehicles and Smart Grids, Automation and Control Systems, and Power Electronics and Drives. Advanced lab work, live projects, and industry-relevant training run alongside classroom learning from day one, so graduates leave as job-ready engineers & not just degree-holders.

Message from the Head of Department
Engineering has always been about turning an idea into something that works. That could be a bridge, a machine, an electronic system, a manufacturing process, or a technology that solves an everyday problem.
At the School of Engineering, our focus is to give students the opportunity to experience this process themselves. We want students to spend time in laboratories, work on projects, understand how things work, interact with industry, and learn from practical experience—not just prepare for examinations.
I also believe that an engineering degree should help students become independent thinkers. There will be problems for which there is no ready-made answer. Learning how to approach such problems with patience, creativity, and confidence is an important part of becoming an engineer.
Our faculty will work closely with students to develop their technical abilities while also encouraging teamwork, communication and professional responsibility. My message to our students is simple: stay curious, keep experimenting, and never be afraid to ask why.
