The “Electric Power Engineering” Department was established in 1977 under the leadership of M.T. Turdiev by order of the Rector of the Institute, separated from the “General Technical Sciences” Department under the name “General Electrical Engineering.” Starting from 1978, the Department began training part-time students in the field of “Electric Power Supply of Industrial Enterprises, Cities, and Agriculture.” Since 1985, full-time students have been admitted to the “Electric Power Engineering” program. From 1998, the Department trained teacher-engineers in the field of “Electric Power Engineering,” and since 2000, it has admitted students to the Master’s specialty “Electric Power Supply” (by sectors).
The Department was headed by M.T. Turdiev during 1977–1985 and 1994–2005; by A.M. Abdullaev from 1985 to 1994; by N.N. Sadullaev from 2005 to 2011; by M.I. Makhmudov from 2011 to 2018; and by I.I. Khafizov from 2018 to 2019.
In accordance with the Order of the Ministry of Higher and Secondary Specialized Education of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated July 10, 2019, three new departments were established. The “Electromechanics and Technologies” Department, headed by Associate Professor I.I. Khafizov (2019–2024), provided training for bachelor’s students in the field 60710700 – Electrical Engineering, Electromechanics and Electrical Technologies, and for master’s students in the specialties 70710701 – Electromechanics and 70710703 – Electrical Engineering Complexes and Systems. The “Energy” Department, headed by Associate Professor R.B. Jalilov (2019–2024), trained bachelor’s students in the fields 60710500 – Energy Engineering and 60710600 – Electric Power Engineering, and master’s students in the specialty 70710503 – Industrial Thermal Power Engineering. The “Energy Audit” Department, headed by M.I. Makhmudov (2019–2024), trained bachelor’s students in the fields 60710900 – Energy Efficiency and Energy Audit and 60711000 – Alternative Energy Sources, as well as master’s students in the specialties 70710901 – Energy Efficiency and Energy Audit and 70710411 – Alternative Energy Sources.
In the 2024–2025 academic year, as a result of changes in the internal structure of the University, the three departments were merged to establish a single Department of “Electrical and Energy Engineering.” During the 2024–2025 academic year, N.N. Mirzayev served as the Head of the Department of Electrical and Energy Engineering.
From the beginning of the 2025–2026 academic year to the present, the Department has been headed by Associate Professor Latipov Saidmurod Tuyg’unovich.
Currently, the Department employs 3 Professors, 23 Associate Professors, 7 Senior Lecturers, 9 Assistants, and 9 Trainee Lecturers.

The educational programs 60710400 - Power Engineering (1st year); 60710500 - Electrical Engineering (1st year); 60710700 - Electronics and Instrumentation (1st year) are being improved based on the regulatory documents of the TOP 300 programs of the Italian Polytechnic University of Turin and the German Technische Universität Dresden, Electrical Power Engineering and Renewable Energy Systems.
The department is preparing for the international accreditation of the bachelor's degree programs 60710400 - Power Engineering and 60710500 - Electrical Engineering by the German International Accreditation Organization in 2025. At the same time, the “Heat Engineering. Thermodynamics” training laboratory is planned to be internationally accredited by the International Accreditation Organization of the Islamic Republic of Iran in 2025.
The department’s professors and teachers have been systematically trained in foreign universities, and over the past three years, 8 professors and teachers have undergone advanced training courses and scientific internships in prestigious foreign universities. In 2022, one professor and teacher, Jalilov Rashid Boboqulovich, underwent a one-month internship at the Kazan Federal University of the Russian Federation from 17.10.2022 to 17.11.2022 (Minutes of the department meeting No. 5 dated 18.11.2022). In 2023, three professors and teachers Bozorov Makshum Bakhshilloyevich, Mirkhanov Utkir Kakhramonovich and Gafurov Mirzohid Oripovich completed an internship at the "New Energy Vehicle Technology" department of the People's Republic of China (Minutes of the meeting of the department No. 6 dated 06.12.2023).
