It has been a privilege a look back of 30 years of Aeronautical, Automobile, Mechanical and Mechatronics when there is so much to feel proud of and so much to celebrate. Past years have been extremely successful and satisfying in terms of accomplishm successful and satisfying in terms of accomplishments and accolades in scholastic, co-scholastic and infrastructural development areas. The School of Mechanical Engineering consist of four core departments which includes, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Department of Mechatronics Engineering, Department of Aeronautical Engineering and Department of Automobile Engineering. The department have state of the art laboratory and research facilities which enables students and faculty members to carry out outstanding research activities. The vision of the school is to provide high quality education in the field of mechanical engineering, thereby enabling the students to meet the requirements of the industry and also to create research centres to help industry and society. The school of mechanical engineering always strives to collaborate with national and international institutions to excel in its academic pursuit. I feel proud to acknowledge the contribution of highly qualified, dynamic and multi-talented faculty, non-teaching faculty and my students for this. Our School of Mechanical has primary objective to create a conducive and compassionate environment for overall development of students in curricular & co-curricular activities to need for the society.
