How good is IIT Delhi Electrical Engineering (Power and Automation)?

DS
Dipti Sinha Posted On : April 3rd, 2023
B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (2022)

IIT Delhi’s Electrical Engineering department has a number of branches like

  • Communication Engineering (Communications Group, Electrical Engineering, IIT Delhi)
  • Control and Automation (Control & Automation)
  • Computer Technology (Computer Technology)
  • Integrated Electronics Circuits (Integrated Electronics and Circuits)
  • Power Electronics, Electrical Machines and Drives (Power Electronics, Electrical Machines, and Drives)
  • Power Systems

This allows Electrical Engineering students to choose from a wide range of topics and they don’t have to restrict their area of interest. However, to provide core electrical engineering education and research opportunities, there is a separate Electrical specialization in Power and Automation.

Owing to the small batch size and top-notch lab facilities, IIT Delhi’s Electrical department is highly coveted and is funded by Industry donations and partnerships. The performance rate of the students of this department has been increasing over the past few years and these students continue to perform well in each batch. 

However, it is important to note that academic rigor is high in this department and requires a high level of commitment. But your efforts don’t go wasted because of the excellent packages offered to the students of this branch.

I have rated the program based on some aspects to give a better idea.

  • Global recognition: Top 0.1%
  • Scholastic Aptitude: Top 0.1%
  • Work Ethics: Top 0.1%
  • Placement assistance: Top 0.1%
  • Program Support: Top notch 
  • Infrastructure: Top notch 
  • Faculty: Top 0.1%
  • Research output: Not among the Top 50 global programs

Do your part of the research and talk to people who have completed this program and then make the final decision.

Which one is better, electrical engineering or electrical (power and automation) from IIT Delhi?

SG

studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi

It’s best to compare both the branches based on the most common aspects such as

  • Curriculum: The curriculum of both Electrical Engineering and Electrical Engineering (Power and Automation) covers a lot of common topics. The core courses of one may be available as either core courses or elective courses for the other, and vice versa. Only around 5 distinguishing courses are offered.
  • Job opportunities: As far as core placements are concerned, the opportunities offered by both branches are quite different. Some companies might prefer students of one branch over the other. The non-core job roles offered are very similar in both branches.
  • Competition: Electrical Engineering has better-ranking students than Electrical (Power and Automation). Thus the former has better competition than the latter. Someone who is among the top 10 in Electrical is among the top 2-3 in Electrical Power and Automation.

IIT Delhi Electrical Engineering offers slightly more opportunities in terms of peer quality and placements than the other.
