BTech Mechanical Engineering

Program Description

BTech Mechanical Engineering (ME) is a four-year undergraduate engineering degree course offered by the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering. This course aims to prepare students to apply the laws and principles of science and mathematics to analyse, maintain and design and manufacture mechanical systems. The program offers subjects such as Kinematics & Dynamics of Machinery, Thermodynamics, Material Science and Metallurgy, Mechanical Design, Computer-Aided Design & Manufacturing, Fluid Mechanics & Machineries, Finite Element Method, Heat Transfer, etc. along with a great choice of program electives to strengthen the Mechanical Engineering Knowledge of the students. The labs with high-end software and advanced machinery keep students in sync with technological advances and prepare them for lifelong learning.

Focus

Mechanical engineering is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering branches that combines engineering physics and mathematics principles with materials science, to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. The mechanical engineering branch requires an understanding of core areas including mechanics, dynamics, thermodynamics, materials science and structural analysis. The mechanical engineering program encompasses four distinct professional fields of study: product design, manufacturing, thermal sciences and engineering-management science. Additionally, students can opt for more specific fields such as computational fluid dynamics, fatigue and fracture mechanics, tribology, composite materials, total quality management, modeling and simulation of dynamic systems, Jet propulsion and Rocket Technology, etc. Mechanical engineers work in a wide range of industries not limited to product design, analysis, manufacture and testing. Mechanical engineers make a significant contribution by developing technologies to fulfil human requirements. Almost every product or service in modern life has been influenced by a mechanical engineer to aid humanity in some way.

Career Prospects

The Institution’s placement cell, industry partners, and alumni network will facilitate placement and internships as design engineer, production managers, business operations managers, quality engineers, system engineers and data engineers. The students get placed in prominent companies like Adani Power, Baxter, Bosch, Daimler India, Delloitte Dyson Technology, Fiat India, Forbes Marshall, Goldman Sachs, Hero Motocorp, Indian Oil, JSW Steels, KPMG, L&T, Maruti Suzuki, Mahindra & Mahindra, MRF Ltd., Quest Global, Tata Motors, Schneider Electric, Volvo, Textron, 3D Usher, Accenture, Infosys, Wipro, Amazon, Flipkart, Capgemini, Cognizant, Honeywell, Saint Gobain, Reliance, The Math Company and ZS Associates, etc. Additionally, the institution has partnered with overseas colleges and offers semester abroad programs. After completing the three-year B.Tech degree, students have the option of enrolling in an integrated Master's program at a partner university abroad.
