The Department of Mechanical Engineering was started in the year 2006 and accredited by NBA in the year 2018. The department offers B. Tech. program in Mechanical Engineering. At present, the department intake capacity is 60 students per year at the B. Tech. The department has competent and committed faculty members drawn from the industry sector, and the core faculty are experienced professionals and academicians who enhance the delivery of academic programs. There are 18 teaching faculty members in the department and most of them have at least 10 years of experience.
The department has evolved a comprehensive student-centric learning approach, designed to add significant value to the learner's understanding in an integrated manner through workshops, lab sessions, assignments, training, seminars, projects and independent study. The hands-on training offered by our CAD/CAM laboratory in the latest design and analysis software brings in a formal method of familiarizing with the industrial practices. This helps the students to apply their classroom knowledge to live industrial problems. The department is equipped with ten laboratories, and nine workshops. The laboratories and computing facilities are made available to the students and staff until late at night and on all working days.
To make the Mechanical Engineering Programme a Centre of Excellence in professional
education and research.
To provide quality education for moulding competent professionals in Mechanical Engineering
To facilitate continuous learning environment
To promote collaborative activities and positive contributions to society
