6th December 2019		Short Course on Leadership, RTI, Office Procedures and Purchase Procedures for Staff of TEQIP CollegesRTI Act 2005 plays a vital role for setting out the practical regime of right to information for
citizens to secure access to information under the control of public authorities, in order to
promote transparency and accountability in the working of every public authority. The
workshop aims to cover the outline idea of the RTI Act 2005 with its intricacies and
guidelines about the role of designated public authorities involved to deal with the RTI
related matters.		Senior Staff Members (Group A & B), Involved in Administrative Responsibilities2015

21st December 2019		Short Course on Electrical Machines and Power ElectronicsBased on the load
requirements, there was a need to choose a motor with matching torque-speed characteristics.
With the developments in semiconductor devices, it is possible to alter the characteristics of
chosen motor just by changing the excitation. For different DC and AC motors, torque
control below and above base-speed will be explained.

27th February 2020		Short Course on Data Science & AnalyticsThe objective of this course is to impart the necessary knowledge of the foundations needed for one
of the NASSCOM identified digital technology: data science and analytics, and develop
programming skills required to build data science applications. The course will be conducted with
the generous support of MHRD and NPIU. The course will be offered to faculty across the country
and will eventually lead to upskilling of a large workforce in the area of data science and analytics.

03rd March 2021		Online Short course on Frontiers in the Energy-Water Nexus

Energy and water are both critical needs of humanity that are interlinked and under increasing
stress. Water is required for energy production, and energy is necessary for both
transportation and treatment of water. The goal of this short course is to understand
challenges at the intersection of water and energy and critically analyze technology solutions
that have been proposed in this area. The course will introduce concepts of chemical and
electrochemical thermodynamics, as well as transport phenomena.		Faculty3519

11th March 2021		Online Short course on Design of CMOS Operational Amplifier ICs- A unique pedagogical approachin summary, it is tricky to design an OPAMP IC for some given specification with a particular
architecture. However, like any other analog ICs, the analog designer needs to develop skills to
design a CMOS based OPAMP IC. Note that in analog circuits, the signal is transferred from
input node to output node through intermediate nodes. The efficiency of signal transfer (which
controls the device specifications) depends on the resistance and capacitance at every node.
So, for proper design, one needs to understand this signal transfer process between input and
output nodes. In this course, we will discuss a unique pedagogical approach, which will make
the overall CMOS amplifier design process simple and interesting.		Faculty3019
