Prof. Dr. Shailaja Arjun Patil
Head of Department
The Department of Electrical Engineering at R. C. Patel Institute of Technology (RCPIT), Shirpur was established in June 2012 under the umbrella of The Shirpur Education Society. In a relatively short span, the department has built a strong reputation for its academic excellence, placement success, and student-centric approach.
With a dedicated and experienced faculty team, the department offers specialized knowledge in areas such as Power Quality, Electrical Machines, Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, and Power Systems. The department follows a project-based learning approach, encouraging students to apply theoretical concepts in practical scenarios, thus ensuring they are well-prepared for industry and research.
Electrical Engineering, being a core branch, plays a vital role in the technological and economic growth of the country. The department’s curriculum provides a deep foundation in control systems, power generation, high voltage engineering, electrical machines, and circuit analysis, with a strong emphasis on adaptability to emerging technologies.
