Hi,

Power engineering, also called power systems engineering, is a subfield of electrical engineering that deals with the generation, transmission, distribution and utilization of electric power, and the electrical apparatus connected to such systems. Although much of the field is concerned with the problems of three-phase AC power – the standard for large-scale power transmission and distribution across the modern world – a significant fraction of the field is concerned with the conversion between AC and DC power and the development of specialized power systems such as those used in aircraft or for electric railway networks. Power engineering draws the majority of its theoretical base from electrical engineering.

A student who has completed a B.Tech in Power Engineering degree can get either of these designations-

Power Electronics Engineer

Power Engineer

Test Engineer - Power Electronics

Engineering Supervisor - Power

Power Transformer Executives

Students who have completed their B.Tech degree in Power Engineering can either opt for job or they can go for further studies. Students can enroll themselves for ME or M.Tech degree in Power Engineering.

Top recruiting industries:

Power Generation, Transmission & Distribution,

In Electronics Industries

Software Industries

Process Industries and Steel Plants

In Power Electronics Industries

Career as Power Electronics, Circuits and Systems Developer.

In AC/ DC drive Industries,

Railways

Thanks..!!
