Welcome to the Department of Mechanical Engineering.
It gives me immense pleasure to welcome you to our department, a centre of excellence in engineering education, research, innovation, and industry engagement. Our NBA-accredited undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, outcome-based education, and learner-centric approach are supported by a team of highly qualified, experienced, and dynamic faculty members committed to academic excellence, research, and professional development.
The department offers state-of-the-art laboratories and Centres of Excellence in emerging areas such as Technical Textile, Additive Manufacturing, Advanced Manufacturing, and Industrial Automation, providing an excellent ecosystem for experiential learning and cutting-edge research. We are well-equipped with state-of-the-art, high-technology laboratories, including the Tribology Laboratory, Vibration Laboratory, and Additive Manufacturing Laboratory. Our vibrant research culture is reflected through 400+ SCI/Scopus-indexed publications, funded research projects, consultancy, patents, and strong industry collaborations. We also foster innovation and entrepreneurship through incubation support, startup mentoring, and technology-driven initiatives that encourage students and faculty to transform ideas into impactful solutions.
Beyond academics, we emphasize the holistic development of our students through technical clubs and professional societies, including Team Nequit, Go-Kart Team, SAE, and other innovation and entrepreneurship activities. Our students have consistently excelled in national and international competitions, while our strong industry partnerships provide valuable opportunities for internships, collaborative projects, and placements. As we continue our pursuit of academic excellence and societal impact, I warmly invite students, parents, alumni, researchers, and industry partners to join us in shaping the future of mechanical engineering.
