Department of Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering touches our everyday life. It is present in healthcare, climate change, energy or transportation. Mechanical Engineers attempt to create sustainable solutions in these spheres through the design and development of components and machines.

Advancement of modern technology, mechanical engineering has gained new prominence, with an increasing number of students opting to learn less explored domains such as robotics, mechatronics, nanotechnology, and so on.

Mechanical engineering is a diverse subject that derives its breadth from the need to design and manufacture everything from small individual parts and devices (e.g., microscale sensors and inkjet printer nozzles) to large systems (e.g., spacecraft and machine tools). The role of a mechanical engineer is to take a product from an idea to the marketplace. In order to accomplish this, a broad range of skills is needed. The mechanical engineer must understand how to design for functionality, aesthetics, and the ability to withstand the forces and thermal environment to which they will be subjected.

  • Design - In this role, the mechanical engineers would be responsible for drafting technical sketches either with tools or computers. Any mechanical engineer good with sketches or computer-aided drawing is ideal for such a position.
  • Production - The production job role usually involves consultation and supervision in the manufacturing of machines and their components. If you are an individual who wants to experience manufacturing techniques and production processes, this would be the right job role for you.
  • Analysis and Testing - In this job role, you would be responsible for the analysis and testing of machine parts, systems, and equipment. Your responsibilities would include checking for faults that could have come up in the manufacturing or design processes.
  • Installation & Maintenance - The job role involves knowledge of installation of machine parts in the industrial location, along with their proper maintenance as per the provided specifications. The installation and maintenance are only recommended for those who are strong in practical knowledge instead of theoretical knowledge
  • Research - Last but not least, research is one of the most exciting job roles in mechanical engineering. Your job responsibilities would include researching and implementing findings for the development of new products using the latest technologies.

scope of Mechanical Engineering

The scope of mechanical engineering no longer remains limited to just the manufacturing and testing of huge machinery and equipment. With technology making new advancements, there are several new domains in mechanical engineering which are being taken up by passionate engineers. These domains include robotics, new materials, nanotechnology, computer-aided design, geomechanics, etc. The two highly pursued domains are robotics and mechatronics, both of which combine the knowledge of mechanical engineering with other streams to deliver state-of-the-art products.
