Prof. V. Dhayalan (Professor in Physics and Technology and Coordinator\/HRNCET, HVL) and Prof. K. Kandasamy (Emeritus Professor in Physics and Consultant \/ Faculty of Technology, UoJ) have been serving as facilitators, while Prof. Meena Senthilnanthan, Dr T. Pathmathas, and Dr A. Anburuvel are serving as subject coordinators for this curriculum development process.<\/p>\n

Professor P. Ravirajan coordinated the overall curriculum development of both the one-year taught Master’s Degree Programme in Clean Energy Technologies<\/strong> (1 year – SLQF level 9) and the Master of Science Degree Programme in Clean Energy Technologies (2 years – SLQF level 10)<\/strong>. He led the entire programme approval process, securing recommendations from the Faculty Board, Senate, and Council, and successfully obtained approval from the University Grants Commission based on the recommendation of the Quality Assurance Commission.<\/p>\n

Details of the curricula developed for the following Master’s degree programmes under the project. The University Grants Commission approved both curricula.<\/p>\n
