Department of Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering is a discipline that allows students acquire skills in design, acquisition and application of engineering principles in designing, analyzing and manufacturing processes and systems. Here, students are trained for the award of B. Eng. Degree. The teaching and research are based on sound academic foundation as well as practical orientation that will be sufficient to make them employable in the Industries. On completion of the programme, Mechanical engineering graduates will be able to practice in the following sectors: manufacturing, automotive, automobile, aerospace, biomedical, computers and electronics, construction, sports, railway, oil and gas, energy, power, environmental control, robotics etc.

Programme Educational Objectives (PEO) of B.E (Mechanical Engineering): 

PEO1- To provide a quality undergraduate education for students entering the mechanical 
engineering profession or seeking careers in related fields. 
PEO2- To advance scientific knowledge through basic and applied research. 
PEO3- To disseminate technical information through scholarly publication, conferences and 
continuing education. 
PEO4- To enable to acquire knowledge of relevant technologies and multidisciplinary fields 
including broad social, ethical and environmental issues within which the engineering is 
practiced. 
PEO5- To develop problem solving approach using analytical abilities, effective communication 
skills and team work 
PEO6- To create awareness and understanding related to societal issues, apart from developing a 
sense of commitment to the community and profession with sincere involvement. 

Program Outcomes (POs) of B.E (Mechanical Engineering): 

On completion of the program, the Mechanical Engineering Graduates are expected to: 
PO1- Be competent in applying basic knowledge of science and engineering for the purpose of 
obtaining solution to a multi-disciplinary problem. 
PO2- Gain knowledge of understanding and analyzing complex engineering problem. 
PO3- Be able to design system components and processes meeting all applicable rules and 
regulations. 
PO4- Be capable of undertaking suitable experiments/research methods while solving an 
engineering problem and would arrive at valid conclusions based on appropriate 
interpretations of data and experimental results. 
PO5-  Continually upgrade his/her understanding and become confident in applying recent 
engineering practices and soft tools along with other appropriate techniques and resources. 
PO6- Exhibit understanding of societal and environmental issues (health, legal, safety, cultural, 
etc.) and consequent responsibilities relevant to professional engineering practice. 
PO7- Be proficient in arriving at innovative solution to a problem with due considerations to 
society and environment. 
PO8- Be committed to professional ethics, and economic, environmental, societal, and political 
norms. 
PO9- Demonstrate appropriate inter-personal skills to function effectively as an individual, as a 
member or as a leader of a team and in a multi-disciplinary setting. 
PO10- Be able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentations; give and 
receive clear instructions; make effective presentations and communicate effectively and 
convincingly on complex engineering issues with engineering community and with society 
at large. 
PO11- Be conscious of financial aspects of all professional activities and shall be able to undertake 
projects with appropriate management control and control on cost and time. 
PO12- Recognize the need for continuous learning and will prepare himself/ herself appropriately 
for his/her all-round development throughout the professional career. 

In the Mechanical Engineering programme, students are trained for the award of B. Eng. Degree. The teaching and research are based on sound academic foundation as well as practical orientation that will be sufficient to make them employable in the Industries. The philosophy of the programme is to produce graduate that combine sound theoretical background with practical skills to enable them take up challenging positions in the mechanical and manufacturing industries, public service and the academia directly and also to reach a level of practical sufficiency that would enable them to be self-employed.
