MATLAB Training Workshop | IEEE Day 2025
Title: MATLAB Training Workshop on Basic Electrical System Modeling | IEEE Day 2025
Date: October 8, 2025
Time: 9:30 AM – 12:30 PM
Venue: Computer Lab, 3rd Floor, CCET Alappuzha
The IEEE SB CCET successfully executed a highly specialized MATLAB Training Workshop on Basic Electrical System Modeling as a key technical contribution to the IEEE Day 2025 celebrations. Led by domain expert Dr. Bijuna Kunju K (Professor, EEE Dept., TKMCE) [Image 1], the intensive, hands-on session successfully engaged 45 dedicated students on short notice. The event provided high-value technical proficiency, rewarded participants with an e-certificate, and allocated 12 Activity Points.
Proceedings:
The workshop was conducted with professional precision in the Computer Lab, adhering to the following structure:
- Brief Introduction: The proceedings began with Adithyan Mohanlal, MD Lead, IEEE SB CCET, setting the context through a brief introductory address.
- Welcome Address & Felicitation: Vishnu S (Branch Counsellor & PES Chapter Advisor) delivered the official welcome address and invited the Chief Guest to the podium.
- Expert Technical Session: Dr. Bijuna Kunju K. led an exceptionally interactive and educational session on translating electrical theory into computational practice. Key functionalities covered included:
- Programming Fundamentals: Advanced matrix algebra, M-file scripting (e.g., solving quadratic equations), and specialized data visualization using subplot and custom plots.
- Control System Analysis: Hands-on application of the Control System Toolbox, focusing on defining Transfer Functions (TF) and performing comprehensive analysis.
- Core Analytical Topics: Practical training in obtaining Step Response (e.g., RLC circuits), generating Bode Plots to determine stability margins (Gain Margin/Phase Margin), and plotting the Root Locus to assess system stability.
- Motivation: The speaker also motivated attendees, sharing her experience and emphasizing the necessity of practicing MATLAB skills and deepening involvement in the IEEE community.
- Vote of Thanks: The session concluded with the official Vote of Thanks delivered by Mohammed Ashiq (Secretary, IEEE SB CCET).
The MATLAB Training Workshop was successfully completed on October 8, 2025, meeting its objective of elevating the technical capabilities of our members. Engaging 45 students in high-level analytical topics on short notice confirms the administrative efficiency and professional focus of IEEE SB CCET. We extend our deepest gratitude to Dr. Bijuna Kunju K for delivering a phenomenal, inspiring, and highly rigorous session.

Speakers
Dr. Bijuna Kunju K, TKMCE EEE Professor, is a Power Systems expert and award-winning former IEEE Vice Chair.
Dr. Bijuna Kunju K is an eminent academic, serving as a Professor of EEE at TKMCE and the Dean of Administration. She is a renowned Power Systems specialist, whose research includes intelligent fault detection and electricity market dynamics. A highly decorated IEEE leader, she previously served as the Vice Chairperson of the Kerala Section, and is an award-winning volunteer, notably receiving the international Outstanding WIE Volunteer Award.
Her session was a masterclass in applying computational methods to electrical engineering. It provided intensive, hands-on training that uniquely covered advanced matrix algebra—explicitly detailing the distinction between element-wise and standard operations and practical M-file scripting. Critically, the workshop gave students comprehensive exposure to the Control System Toolbox, teaching them to define Transfer Functions using two distinct methods and immediately analyze system stability via Bode Plots (for margins) and Root Locus (for system gain K). Beyond technical depth, she provided strong professional motivation, encouraging practice and engagement with the wider IEEE community.
