About the department
Engineering knowledge for practical impact
The Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering prepares engineers with the technical expertise and practical skills required to design, manufacture, optimize, and maintain engineering systems that support industrial growth and sustainable development. The Department combines strong engineering science with practical training to produce graduates capable of solving complex engineering challenges across manufacturing, energy, transportation, agriculture, healthcare, and emerging industries.
The Department emphasizes competence-based learning through modern engineering laboratories, workshops, industrial training, project-based learning, and research. Students develop expertise in machine design, manufacturing systems, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, materials engineering, production engineering, industrial automation, and sustainable engineering technologies.
Through research and innovation, the Department supports the development of locally appropriate engineering solutions, prototype development, advanced manufacturing technologies, additive manufacturing (3D printing), renewable energy systems, and industrial productivity improvement.
