The Centre for Innovation Incubation and
Entrepreneurship (CIIE) has started with the
objective for promoting specialized knowledge
in the field of entrepreneurship development,
innovation and creative ideas. In view of the
worldwide shortage of jobs (both government
and private sectors) leading to unemployment
problems and lack of proper utilization of
human resources; the CIIE strives to identify
talented youth and motivate them to entrepre-
neurial and innovation works. The centre plans
to develop various innovative ideas with the
students and local youth.

*Open Elective: Any course of level 400 and above offered in the University and recommended by the department.

$ The 7th semester will start a month later than usual and therefore be shorted by a month. To compensate for it there shall be 4 class
hours per week for a 3 credit course.

# Industrial Summer Training: Training shall be of 8 weeks duration carried out during the summer break after the 6th semester. The
report will be submitted in the 7th semester.
Elective courses are offered based on the choice of students and availability of teacher for teaching a particular course

For more information one can visit the departmental website http://www.tezu.ernet.in/dee

Courses offered in B.Tech. in Electrical Engineering (since 2018)

*Minimum credits: 160
Maximum credits: 165

Students from 5th semester onwards may opt for inter-departmental courses in conformity with the work force requirements in the industries
within the credit range.
Students may also opt for Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) for 20% of the total credit range in conformity with the concept of digital
education.
For Open Elective courses: Students may opt for any course offered by the University from the preferable subjects enlisted in Table A. and
recommended by the department, as per AICTE guidelines.
Students will undergo a summer training of 4 weeks after 6th semester during summer vacation and submit the report and the certificate of
completion in the department in the beginning of 7th semester

*Open Elective: Any course of level 400 and above offered in the University and recommended by the department.

$ The 7th semester will start a month later than usual and therefore be shorted by a month. To compensate for it there shall be 4 class hours per
week for a 3 credit course.

# Industrial Summer Training: Training shall be of 8 weeks duration carried out during the summer break after the 6th semester. The report will be
submitted in the 7th semester.

Elective courses are offered based on the choice of students and availability of teacher for teaching a particular course
