Department of Mechanical Engineering

About the Mechanical Department

Mechanical engineering is an engineering branch that combines engineering physics and mathematics principles with materials science to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. The Department of Mechanical Engineering was started to provide technical education to the socially and economically backward students of north coastal Andhra Pradesh with the following vision and mission.

  1. The department of Mechanical engineering has been started in 2018 to facilitate the most down trodden students.
  2. To fulfill the life ambitions of the students.
  3. They are thriving hard to the basic amenities to the students.

Vision:

To emerge as a Centre of Excellence and promulgate advanced technologies in the field of Mechanical Engineering that indulge in providing innovative solutions to meet the ever changing needs of the industry and society.

Mision:

  1. To build an academic environment of teaching and lifelong learning for students and to make them competitive in context with
    advanced technological, economical changes.
  2. To produce graduates who meet the rapidly changing needs of industry which demand new skills.
  3. To empower the undergraduate students to involve themselves in high-end research work to build skills beyond curriculum.
  4. To promote spirit of entrepreneurship among the students.
  5. Strengthen the skill set of the students through curricular, co-curricular & extra-curricular activities.
    1. Currently the Department offers only U.G Course.
    2. The department has well sophisticated Mechanical Laboratories.
    3. The faculty are actively involved in research in the areas of fluid mechanics combustion and energy systems design and manufacturing
      dynamics and control materials and structures vibrations.

Curriculum Framing:

  • The University administration and College of Engineering has taken utmost care in designing the curriculum of each department and also scriplosily following the guidelines given by AICTE.
  • The curriculum has prepared by considering AICTE , APSHE, and 1 IIT and 1 State University and 1 autonomous Institute as reference.
  • Many brainstorming sessions has been conducted among stakeholders to finalize the credits and curriculum and detailed syllabus and the above said
    program outcomes, program specific outcomes, program educational objectives and learning outcomes includes in the detailed syllabus .
  • And it was finalized in a board of studies meeting held on 6th July 2019 which is resolved.
  • The entire course is having average credits of 170 for all three branches i.e. ECE, CSE, MECH. And each Semester is having average credits of 22 for all three branches.
  • Constitution of Board of Studies: The BOS contains three categories. Category-I, Category-II, Category-III.
