Department of Mechanical Engineering Education

The Department of Mechanical Engineering Education provides quality need-based training in contemporary and emerging fields through long- and short-term programs and develops demand-driven and innovative instructional resources. The department offer expertise in various projects and activities related to curriculum development, teacher training, teaching materials preparation, workshop and laboratory innovation, curriculum innovation, technology innovation, student evaluation and also developed MOOCs. Research activities and sponsored projects are also given equal emphasis and the faculty members of the department have undertaken projects and published research papers and patents. The department has started postgraduate program in Advanced production systems in 2012 to contribute more towards technology, also to cultivate and nurture the next generation of talent who will be capable enough to handle real world problems related to IR 4.0 requirements. With this view, department proposed integrated PG programme with three specialization viz. Advanced production systems and manufacturing simulations; Industrial Automation and Thermal Power Engineering & Maintenance.
