OVERVIEW

Mechanical Engineering Department, established in the year 2003, produces graduates who can meet the needs of rapidly changing industry which demands new skills and knowledge of modern technology. The Department offers B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering and M.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering. Vision of the Department is to deliver world-class education and research in Mechanical Engineering, with particular regard to their application in industry, healthcare and commerce in a diverse society. It has a conducive ambience and specialized laboratories like CAD-CAM & Robotics Lab, Mechatronics and Modern control Lab, etc along with conventional laboratories like Mechanical Workshops, Thermal lab, Dynamics of Machines Lab, etc. The infrastructure fully supports experiments as prescribed in MAKAUT curriculum. Separate Computer Laboratory was established for teaching computer aided design and analysis of devices using various software like AutoCAD, Creo, ANSYS etc. The department is facilitated with high speed internet connection for acquiring knowledge from the web. Undergraduate students get opportunity to involve themselves in high-end research work to build skills beyond curriculum. In addition to classes, the Department organizes regular visiting lectures delivered by Industry Experts and arranges industrial visits for both faculty and students. Postgraduate scholars are engaged in high-end research and publication activities.

The WBUT syllabi followed by the department are very progressive and together with these, the AICTE norms / recommendations make way for complete reformation. The department, starting in 2003, makes a modern beginning this millennium with spacious labs (70-90 Sq.M.), classrooms and a sprawling workshop that covers over 1250 Sq.M. space with Machine Shop, Welding Shop, Foundry, Forging, Carpentry, Smithy, and the list grows. The Labs are planned to provide state-of-the-art facilities with machine and equipments that pertain to our updated curricula : Labs for Fluid Mechanics, Thermal Power, Engineering Graphics, Strength of Materials, CAD/CAM, Machine Dynamics, Robotics/CNC… are all passing through a brisk process of development.
