Preamble:The importance of Power Electronics (PE) has been increased over the years because of their smooth control and conversion of power. PE technologies have been widely used in renewa-ble energy systems, like hydro power, municipal solid wastes, biomass, geothermal, solar thermal, solar photovoltaic, wind power, tidal and wave. Although many of these resources are free, the cost of Power Electronics and energy conversion efficiency are the major concern to the system planners. PE plays a major role in extracting energy from renewable sources and interconnects to utility gird.This course facilitates researchers, practicing professionals, and research students to understand and apply the principles of power electronic converters for various forms of non-conven-tional sources. Various theoretical sessions and laborato-ry-based experiments/demonstrations are designed, not only by the academia, but also the professionals from R&D organi-zations and industries to meet objective. The lectures delivered by the experts from Centre for Development of Advancement Computing (CDAC) are expected to open new ideas for control of power electronic converters. This course also offers practical implementation of Digital Signal Processor (DSP).

About National Mission on Power Electronics Technology (NaMPET): National Mission on Power Electronics Technology-NaMPET is a national mission programme launched by the Department of Electronics and Information Technology (DeitY) under Ministry of Communications & Information Technology (MCIT), Govt.of India, with a vision to provide the country with the capability to become a dominant player in Power Electronics Technology. Through this National level R&D Programme, Research, Development, Deployment and Commercialization of Power Electronics Technology is envisaged by enhancing the indigenous R&D expertise and infrastructure in the country with active participation from academic institutions and industries. Centre for Development of Advanced Computing, CDAC, Thiruvananthapuram, a premier R&D organization under DeitY, isthe Nodal Centre coordinating the activities of NaMPET. The first phase of the programme was successfully completed in 2010 and the activities under NaMPET Phase I focused on R&D, infrastructure and awareness creation. Considering the impact, createdby the activities under the first phase of NaMPET, DeitY initiated the second phase of

NaMPET (NaMPET Phase-II) in January 2012 for five years aiming further strengthening of power electronics technology base in the country.

About Centre for Development of Advancement Com-puting (CDAC):CDAC undertakes application oriented research, design and development in electronics, so as to generate state-of-theart producible, marketable, field maintainable products and systems. The Power Electronics group has wide experience of developing successful power electronics products/systems, and avery good industry interaction by way of transfer of technology, field implementation etc. It has very close associa-tion with reputed academic institutions like IISc, IITs, NITs etc. C-DAC has contributed significantly to the growth of industry through indigenous development of commercially viable products andsystems, foreign technology absorption, consultancy, training and turnkey implementation of contract projects.

About the Institute:The National Institute of Technology Goa (NIT Goa) is a premier technical Institute of the region. NIT Goa was established in the year 2010 by an act of parliament (NIT act 2007) and it is declared as ‘Institute of National Importance’. The Institute offers under Graduate and Post Graduate courses in Computer Science and Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering and Electrical and Electronics Engineering. The Institute also offers Ph. D in all the three above mentioned engineering departments. Along with that the Institute offers Ph. D in Mechanical Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Economics and English. The Institute is sincerely attempting to deliver quality education and to achieve excellence in teaching, learning and research with high professional ethics.

About the Department of EEE:The Department of EEE has been actively engaged in teaching and research in diverse fields of Electrical Engineering with well qualified, and experienced faculty. The department offers a UG (B.Tech) Program in Electrical & Electronics Engineer-ing, one PG (M.Tech) Program in the specializations of Power Electronics & Power Systems. The Department also offers Ph.D Programs in all areas of Electrical Engineering. All along, the department has been at the modernization of the curriculum for both UG and PG courses.
