The Master of Technology (M.Tech) in Power Electronics & Drives at the Subharti Institute of Technology and Engineering (SITE) is a specialized 2-year postgraduate program. In 2026, this field is more relevant than ever due to the global shift toward Electric Vehicles (EVs), Smart Grids, and Renewable Energy Integration .
This program focuses on the conversion and control of electrical power using solid-state electronics to drive various industrial and commercial loads.
1. Program Highlights (2026 Session)
Duration: 2 Years (4 Semesters).
Eligibility: B.E. / B.Tech in Electrical Engineering, EEE, ECE, or EI with at least 50% marks .
Total Fees: Approximately ₹1.82 Lakhs to ₹2.01 Lakhs (roughly ₹97,000 for the first year).
Intake: Limited seating (typically 9 to 18 seats) to ensure intensive research supervision.
2. Advanced Curriculum & Core Subjects
The syllabus is designed to move from semiconductor physics to complex industrial applications:
Power Semiconductor Devices: Study of advanced MOSFETs, IGBTs, and GaN/SiC technology for high-efficiency switching.
Modeling & Analysis of Electrical Machines: Mathematical modeling of DC and AC machines for precision control.
Electric Drive Systems: Design of controllers for variable speed drives in industrial automation and EVs.
Smart Grids & Power Quality: Techniques to improve power factor, harmonic filtering, and managing distributed energy resources.
Digital Signal Controllers: Using 32-bit controllers to implement real-time control algorithms in power systems.
3. Specialized Laboratory Facilities
Students at Subharti have access to high-end infrastructure for practical validation:
Electrical Drives Lab: Where students simulate and test motor control strategies (Scalar and Vector control).
Simulation Lab: Extensive use of MATLAB/Simulink and PSpice for modeling power electronic converters and closed-loop systems.
AICTE IDEA Lab: A 24/7 space for prototyping innovative solutions like high-efficiency solar inverters or EV motor controllers.
Industrial Visits: Regular exposure to technocrat-led firms like Sai Electricals for real-world energy management insights.
4. Research & Career Prospects
With India's EV market expected to grow at a CAGR of 49%, graduates in this field are in high demand.
Top Roles: EV Powertrain Engineer, BMS (Battery Management System) Designer, Solar Power Consultant, Research Scientist, and Assistant Professor.
Key Industries: Automotive (Tata Motors, Ola Electric), Energy (Adani Green, Tata Power), and Industrial Automation (Siemens, ABB, Schneider Electric).
Average Salary: In 2026, postgraduates often start between ₹4.8L to ₹10 LPA, with R&D specialists commanding significantly higher packages.
