Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Department Profile

Mechanical Engineering is one of the broadest engineering disciplines. Mechanical engineers use the principles of energy, materials, and mechanics to design and manufacture machines and devices of all types. Engineers in this discipline work on power-producing machines such as electric generators, internal combustion engines, and steam and gas turbines. They also work on power-using machines such as refrigeration and air-conditioning equipment, machine tools, material handling systems, elevators and escalators, industrial production equipment, and robots used in manufacturing. Mechanical engineers also design tools that other engineers need for their work.

Analysis, design, and synthesis are the key functions of mechanical engineers. The question is often how devices and processes actually work. The first step is to visualize what is happening and clearly state the problem. A mechanical engineer will then use computer-based modeling, simulation, and visualization techniques to test different solutions.

The vision of the department includes inculcating the principles of mechanical engineering into students using modern teaching aids. State-of-the-art laboratories and workshops are planned to cater to the needs of nearby industries, the agricultural populace, and more. Academicians and industry experts are invited on a routine basis to address students and nearby industrial technocrats, and the surrounding populace is invited to view various projects prepared by students and staff. The department's mission also includes educating the nearby populace toward modernization in all respects.
