Technology, Bhopal

Introduction

Department Of Energy, MANIT,

Bhopal 2

• Energy Centre, was inaugurated on

12th July 1997 by His Excellency the

then President of India Shri Shankar

Dayal Sharma. Maulana Azad College

of Technology was chosen as the Nodal

Centre for Energy Theme under

Indo-UK RECs project in 1994.

• In 2004, Department of Energy was

created and has been offering post-

graduate programs in Energy

Engineering since then. In 2007 it

became the pioneer in India to start

under-graduate program in Energy
