Mechanical Engineering is a core engineering discipline, the concepts of which are prerequisite for every other branch of engineering as rightly reflected by the curriculum framed by reputed universities all over the world. This is precisely the reason for many mechanical engineers to occupy responsible positions practically in every field of activity - Space , Aviation, Power, Defense and of-course the elite Information technology as well . Most of the engineering based management experts hail from mechanical engineering background. There is substantial contribution by this faculty towards green revolution in the country. Modern technological developments covering MEMS,NANO, Biomedical etc have been a part of studies in this field of engineering only.

           The Department’s  core faculty consists of well known, diverse and talented professionals. In addition, adjunct and visiting faculty, from the industry and from other top academic institutions and research organizations, contribute to keep course delivery abreast with the latest developments and consistent with the requirements of the professional world.

 Objective  

     The major goal of the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Musaliar College of Engineering & Technology is to prepare undergraduate students for challenging and rewarding careers in the mechanical engineering profession. For this purpose, the mechanical engineering program at Musaliar College is designed to educate students in the thermal systems and mechanical systems areas. The teaching focus is on basic and mathematical sciences in the freshman and sophomore years and on engineering sciences in the junior year. In the senior year the students are educated to develop skills to use the knowledge gained in the sophomore through junior years in mechanical engineering applications.

 
Mission
      

The mission of the Department of Mechanical Engineering has three tenets that center on the principle of improving lives and livelihoods: to create knowledge through research in the science and technology of mechanical engineering; to share knowledge through educational programs and the dissemination of our new discoveries; and to develop the professional potential of faculty, staff, and students.
