Head of the Department

The department has successfully established various research groups working independently or in collaboration with various industries towards meaningful goal driven research activities. Such ventures ensure industry-institute interaction that puts theory into practice thereby improving the overall quality of academia.

Supported by 9 state-of the-art laboratories, the department has categorized its various research activities under

  • Energy Research Group (Solar & Thermal Systems)
  • Computer Aided Engineering Group (FEA & CFD)
  • Manufacturing Engineering Group (Production, Materials, Metallurgy & CAD/CAM).

The department is a front-runner in organizing result oriented workshops for its student community.

Autodesk Fusion 360’ training are a few significant examples.

MOUs has been signed with suzlon, and  aradu vaayu wind mill to share facilities  and expertise in order to improve technology through advanced research and education.

The department has signed MoU for facilitating the advanced machining Laboratory for the projects from ISRO etc in exchange of industrial technical expertise for student skill development.

Keeping in view the challenging job-market awaiting its students, the department ensures that they are equipped with industry relevant skills during their curriculum.

Training programmes on CATIA, ANSYS, CFD, AutoCAD, and CNC part programming are conducted on a regular basis which benefits both students and the faculty.

International learning and knowledge propels students towards acceptance and understanding of an array of different cultural, community perspectives.

Department has initiated various student exchange programs with foreign universities
