SKD University, Hanumangarh, Rajasthan, offers Polytechnic Diploma (Electrical) as a 3-year diploma degree.

Expect to spend most of your time on electrical machines, power systems, control systems and power electronics.

SKD University is a other institute, founded in 2018. This page brings together what is on record for this course at SKD University — 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 SKD University for the current semester-wise plan.
