Ph.D in Mechanical Engineering

Mechatronics includes interdisciplinary courses which embrace/collaborate all branches of engineering and scientific knowledge including mechanical and also understanding about the fact that any machine/system/industry have more than 20-50% of components exclusive of mechanical. Hence, it is now imperative for an engineer to have all the basic knowledge of engineering disciplines. The mechatronics field in the future can be in more demand and can oppose the traditional fields of engineering in the coming days.

Electric vehicle is the future of mobility ushering in an age smart transport. As the convenience of diesel and petrol car is getting difficult and in the context of green energy, governments world over doubling down to lower the cost of electric vehicles and expedite their adoption among the masses. The need of mechanical engineers with special skills on EV technology is imminent.

The entry into this branch of engineering requires certain basic traits. Apart from being good in physics and mathematics, one must have a penchant for mechanical components, physical phenomenon, practical real time problem troubleshooting and machinery. Further, one must have immense patience, inventive spirit with innovative mind and desire to make things happen.

Apart from the conventional roles and responsibility, the scope of mechanical engineering is leaping beyond its traditional boundaries. Recently HVAC (Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning), nanotechnology, advanced material science, robotics, additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence, biomedical applications, environmental conservation, etc are been targeted. In nutshell it can be considered that mechanical engineering offers a wide variety of research and job opportunities to students who are looking for a stable and stimulating career. Electric Vehicle Technology is the future of mobility and Mechatronics is a key component of Industry 4.0 .

The resurgence of mechanical engineering was quite spectacular in recent years due to the regular progressive nature of development worldwide. According to survey, this is the most sought after branch preferred by students seeking admission to various technical institutes across Globe. The job market for mechanical engineers is perennial. Even the variation in global economic crisis could not knock out the demand. Although some branches of mechanical engineering went out of focus during the meltdown period, but as specialized courses are being introduced, overall situation is much better as compared to others.

Yes, career in the Indian Defence service is lot more than just element of pride in donning the uniform, be it army, air force or navy. There is nothing to beat a career in the Defence forces, crucial responsibilities, service to the nation, respect from all sections of society all rolled into one. Training for the Defence services automatically qualifies students to become full-fledged officers of the service to which they are appointed. They are guaranteed a job, along with all the perks and allowances, many of which continue even after retirement. Jobs in the Defence Services involve a great deal of power and authority, though there are frequent transfers. Competent officers always have a chance of being promoted to senior positions over the years. Yes, a mechanical engineering can be absorbed in defence forces as technical officers, teaching and various other relevant profiles.

A student can opt for CAD/CAM related courses and hands with a good design and analysis software.

Depending on the ability of the students the average salary range for fresh B.Tech Mechanical Engineer is from 3 LPA to 6 LPA. However, there is no upper limit to the salary for exceptionally students owing to numerous career opportunities.

Mechanical engineering students are groomed by a team of highly motivated, qualified and talented faculty members coming from a rich technological, industrial & academic background. Also the students are trained on the modern, state of art equipment’s in our labs, so as to generate a team of highly competent employable engineering graduates. With most of the faculty members having experience in experimental and computational areas, the students can hope to get valuable guidance. The department is offering various courses in Mechatronics, Electric vehicles, CAD/CAM and HVAC with state of art facility.

Yes, students go for industrial training (approximately 18-20 weeks) during final year. During their course, they are given exposure of various industries, for having in-depth knowledge of activities related to maintenance/ overhaul, design and development, and various manufacturing processes and related documentation. Thus, they get exposed to the functioning of typical industries which proves helpful in placement and thereafter in their industrial career.

The students are taken on industrial visits in industries of repute for familiarization with various mechanical processes and equipments and to see the functioning of the industry and various manufacturing processes followed there. During the visit the students are exposed to foundry and forging shops, machine shops, sheet metal workshop, power plants, automotive, ancillaries, HVAC and many more industries.

The following professional clubs and societies are there in the department, where co-curricular activities regularly being conducted:

• SAE collegiate club
• ISHRAE
• ISTE Club
• IIE STUDENT CHAPTER
• QCFI

Besides this, the department regularly conducts expert talks, seminars, skill development programs and Workshop for updating the knowledge of faculty and students with the latest technology.

We are the best department in and around NCR with 90% placement records in last two years. Many students got multiple offers. As on dated Dec 2022, around 21 students out of 34 students are placed in core Mechanical Engineering with the highest package of 8.5 lakhs. L.G Electronics (P) Ltd had absorbed 8 students as intern and subsequently they will be permanently absorbed by the company.

Total Placement: 93% (2018-22, recently passed out)

70% (2019-23, ongoing last semester)
