Mechanical engineering involves the analysis, design, manufacturing. and maintenance of various systems such as manufacturing plants, industrial equipment and machinery, heating and cooling systems, motor vehicles, aircraft, watercraft, robotics and even medical devices. The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Amritapuri campus was started in 2004.The Department offers B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering, MTech in Thermal and Fluids Engineering, MTech in Robotics and Automation, and PhD programs.
The research activities in the department are focused in the areas like Thermal and Fluids engineering, Engineering design, Materials and Manufacturing, Robotics and Bionics, and Process control and environmental engineering. The department is proud to have some of the most sophisticated lab equipment available today, in its state-of-the art laboratories. The competent and committed faculty in the department have extensive academic, research and industrial experience. A dedicated team of lab staff is also available to support students in the laboratory. In addition to the campus library, the department has an extensive departmental library with books and subscriptions to current journals.
Mechanical Engineering is the mother of all branches of engineering. Contributions by this branch are enormous in the growth of technology over the centuries. Skills needed for this course are strong computational mathematics, creativity, and analytical abilities. The Department of Mechanical Engineering proudly offers a comprehensive Ph.D. program in Mechanical Engineering Science, designed to empower scholars to transcend the boundaries of their own disciplines and delve into innovative interdisciplinary research. Situated amidst good infrastructure of our Bengaluru Campus, our department cultivates a unique research-friendly environment that encourages both core and interdisciplinary exploration.
In the realm of emerging technologies, we cover an extensive array of fields, including Composite and Advanced Materials, Tribology, Computational Mechanics and Simulation, Heat Transfer, Kinematics and Dynamics of Multi-body Systems, Smart and Advanced Manufacturing, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning, Robotics, Automation and IoT, Product Lifecycle Management, Product Development and Concurrent Engineering, Supply Chain Management, Environmental Engineering, Renewable Energy, and Sustainable Technologies, as well as Automobile Technology. To support our scholars in their academic journey, we offer tailored courses that enable them to pursue their distinctive research interests, fostering gradual development and providing a solid foundation for their research initiatives. Regular assessments of scholars’ research progress not only bolster their research endeavours but also equip them with enhanced dedication and rigor in their work. Join us as we explore the exciting frontiers of Mechanical Engineering Science.
