We have limited seats for each course, and the admission process commences from March / April each year. We recommend you apply as soon as possible.

B.Tech Mechanical Engineering is the branch of engineering that involves production, designing, and operations of machines. The course objective of mechanical engineering is to prepare students for applying the principles of mechanical engineering for designing, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems.

Mechanical Engineering involves the supervision of the manufacturing process of components and machines. If you are interested in the manufacturing process and want to get experience with the techniques involved in production this will be a very good field for you.

During the four year course of B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering candidates study various areas such as:

In Mechanical Engineering common courses related to:

Close to 40% of the time involves practical sessions through Laboratory practical, Summer Industrial trainings (30-45 days), Industrial Project Internships (4-6 months), Industrial visits, workshops, conferences etc.

The Department of Mechanical Engineering provides knowledge and training in the field of Machines, to meet the requirements of technical manpower at various levels by implementing the concepts of modular systems in technical education. The Salient Features of the Department are:
