The Department of Mechanical Engineering is committed to and has proved its excellence in research, teaching, assistance to industry and service to the community. Started along with the inception of the college in the year 2002, our Department is recognised by academic peers, students and their employers as one of the best centres of Mechanical Engineering education and research. A degree in Mechanical Engineering is a prerequisite for a career in Automotive, Aerospace, Manufacturing, Building, Process, Medical and Marine domain. Many of our graduates go on to build careers that make important contributions to society in terms of wealth generation, safety and environmental sustainability. Department of Mechanical Engineering has got accreditation in the years 2012, 2019 and 2022.

Faculty in the department are at the forefront in research activities and this enables them to keep their teaching effective. The department boasts of a quarter of their Faculty who had a stint with multinational companies and core industries which very few colleges can stake claim of. This right mix of Academicians and Professionals reverberates in every activity of the department. Presently the department offers B. Tech in Mechanical Engineering, M. Tech in Advanced Manufacturing & Production Management and PhD Program, is led by Dr. Binoy Baby along with 25 Faculty and 10 laboratory Staff Members. 28% of the Faculty are Ph.D holders and 40% are pursuing Ph.D and doing research works in our department.  Department of Mechanical Engineering is an Approved Research Centre of APJAKTU and researches are going on under the supervision of approved Guides. Funded projects from ANERT and APJAKTU-CERD are going on in the department. Professional Clubs such as SAE-INDIA, ASME, ISNEE and ISJHMT have active chapters which conduct national and international programs. Students are encouraged to participate in the SAE-BAJA, Mega ATV, ASME and ISNEE National and International Competitions. Department has signed MoUs with companies like Hindustan Machine Tools, Sea Blue Shipyard, Glenrock and Steel India to enhance industrial interactions and internships. Research Laboratory, Lab Facilities, Project Room, Heritage Diesel Engine and Museum are some of the attractions of our Department. Department offers B. Tech Honours and B.
