DEPARTMENT INFRASTURCTURE

The Department of Mechanical Engineering was established since the inception of the College ie in the year 1998.The department is accredited by NBA and ISO 9001:2000 certified. The department is housed with an area of approximately 2,200 sq.m. Apart from central library, the department is provided with separate library comprising of 600 volumes of books, national and inter national journals, proceedings, technical CD’s, etc.

The Department has one of the  best facilities available in the region  in terms of infrastructure including  laboratories and faculty. Lectures, seminars, laboratory classes and tutorials form a large part of in-college academic activity. The Department imparts   quality    education to   its   students, in modern lecture rooms equipped with appropriate  teaching   aids.

	LABORATORY@ DEPARTMENT • Thermal Engineering Laboratory & CAD/CAM Laboratory • Metrology Laboratory • Mechatronics Laboratory • Engineering Practices Laboratory
LABORATORY@ DEPARTMENT • Strength of Laboratory • Manufacturing Technology laboratory • Dynamics Laboratory • Computer Aided Simulation and Analysis Laboratory

In laboratories , students experiment with the latest    technologies which help    them     in     kindling      their    latent     skills. The tutorials offer individual contact amongst a group of students and a tutor. In a seminar, a group of students, faculty members and industry expert  meet to discuss papers prepared on a given subject. The students are encouraged to participate in state and national level symposia. Due to quality academic standard of the Department, the students of the   Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering program have been consistently performing well , securing good marks in University examinations.

FACULTY

All the department faculty members hold Post Graduate degrees and many have registered for their Ph.D. programme in Anna University. The staff members motivate the students to undertake research projects and they guide the students in presenting their projects in symposia and conferences. The Faculty to student ratio is 1:14
