RGIPT is a public/government institute, founded in 2008. This page brings together what is on record for this course at RGIPT — fees, seats, eligibility, the admission route and placements — so you can judge it before you apply.

Most Diploma programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations, the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means electrical machines, power systems, control systems and power electronics. Typical first jobs: electrical engineer in power, manufacturing, electric-vehicle or utility companies.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask RGIPT for the current semester-wise plan.

Here is how the fee on record breaks down. Fees are for the whole course unless marked otherwise, and apply to Diploma programmes at RGIPT as a group.

Colleges revise fees most years, and hostel, transport and exam charges are often billed separately. Confirm the current figure with RGIPT before you pay anything.
