Prof. Sanjiv Kumar

IEEE PELS SBC HBTU Kanpur, in collaboration with IEEE Student Branch HBTU Kanpur and IEEE WIE SBA HBTU Kanpur, is organizing a two-day Hands-on Workshop on MATLAB and Simulink for Electrical Engineers as part of the IEEE PELS Day 2026 celebrations.

The workshop will be conducted by Prof. (Dr.) Sanjiv Kumar, Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering, HBTU Kanpur, Senior Member IEEE, Fellow IETE, and Dean, International Student Affairs, HBTU Kanpur. With extensive experience in Power Electronics, Electric Drives, and MATLAB/Simulink-based modeling and simulation, he will guide participants through both theoretical concepts and practical applications.

The workshop is designed to provide participants with hands-on exposure to MATLAB programming and Simulink-based system modeling. Topics include fundamentals of MATLAB, simulation of electrical circuits and power electronic converters, modeling of electric drives, analysis of electrical engineering systems, and practical implementation of engineering solutions using MATLAB and Simulink.

Participants will gain valuable experience through live demonstrations, simulation exercises, and interactive learning sessions, helping them develop industry-relevant skills and strengthen their understanding of modern computational tools widely used in academia, research, and industry.
