We have a strong undergraduate program in Mechanical engineering and M. Tech. programs. At the postgraduate level, we offer M. Tech CAD/CAM and this department has Research Centre to guide PhD students. The sanctioned student strengths of B. Tech and M. Tech.,are 180 and 18 respectively per year. At present, the department has intake of 58 PhD scholars. We have many candidates from other colleges, research laboratories and industries carrying out their doctoral studies in our department.
The primary focus of our curriculum is to impart technical know-how to students and promote their problem-solving skills and innovation of new technologies. Department offers Honors and Minors of interdisciplinary courses for providing cross-cutting knowledge to the students to pursue their interests. The course contents are periodically updated for introducing new scientific and technological developments. Undergraduate students are encouraged to undertake various research projects, publish papers in reputed journals and encouraged to spend time in the neighbouring industries.
Our department maintains active research groups for carrying out collaborative and interdisciplinary research.
