This reflects the amount of pursuance I put into learning new skills and knowledge during my Master’s degree.
I am thrilled to announce that I have successfully completed my degree with a Master of Science MSc in Electrical Power Engineering with First class, Distinction (81%).
I am honored to do my final thesis on a real-case Industrial project with POWER PROJECTS. My sincere thanks to Selvakumar S sir for giving me an opportunity and also for spending your valuable time. Many thanks to Suriya kumar for patiently guiding with the project.”

1. Their training program. They teach each and every concept in detail with ETAP simulations and gives assignments which helps a lot. 2. Bonus courses on Let us better understand cable, generator, transformer, earthing system etc. which is an added advantage. 3. It’s not only about taking fees and finishing the courses. They make sure that they have transformed your knowledge by involving us in various webinars, Q&A sessions, Case studies. I can say that the amount Power projects are charging for the training is very nominal in compared to the knowledge which we are getting from them. I consider my life’s best decision which i took by joining Power Projects. Thanks a lot, Selva Sir and entire Power Projects team.”
– Anand Thakur, Electrical Lead Engineer at Quest Global
I’m glad that I have completed another course from powerprojects related to #solarpowerplant . This is not a promotional post but being a student here for last 2+ years, I’d highly recommend this platform to Engineers who are in power segment. Also I’d like to give a one line feedback to the teaching way of Selvakumar S sir, Sethuraman Srinivasan sir and Nivedhan Sivakumararajan sir with the famous quote of Albert Einstein:
“It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.”
Thank you for your teaching, keep sharing the knowledge sir. Will see you on the next course.”
