Hod’s Message

DR. KUMAR SONU

HOD & Professor

A revolution in mechanical engineering is currently occurring. Technologies are employed in practically all areas of mechanical engineering. The department’s primary aim is to provide students the knowledge they need to produce original ideas for the future of India. By immersing them in projects outside the scope of their academic studies, we provide our students with training that is tailored to the needs of the market. The students are working on projects that expose them to the most recent technology used in the mechanical engineering sector. For this, students begin receiving projects in the third semester that put the knowledge they have learned about the subject into practise. Giving both moral values and high-quality technological education equal priority. To ensure that the students get the most out of the cutting-edge tools and outstanding infrastructure, a supportive environment is established.
