Overview

Department of Mechanical Engineering at PESIT was established in the year 1988. The department has an aggressive academic rigor in the autonomous program with a high quality curriculum.

The Department of Mechanaical Engineering offers Master’s degree in Automotive Engineering under Visvesvaraya Technological University. The department has highly qualified experts from both the academia and the industry with vast research and engineering experience. This helps offer high end courses, work on cutting edge technologies along with a curriculum that would help the students get ready for their professional career, be it the industry or academics.

The department is also setting up a research centre dedicated to automotive and aerospace researchand engineering now under the domain CARE (Center for Automobile Research and Engineering) and well facilitated computer labs with the most latest of hardware and software in line with industry requirements. The department has collaborative research relationships with many internationally reputed companies such as General Motors, Mann Hummel, Triveni, EKO, GE to name a few. The department is now expanding especially in the automotive domain to work on cutting edge research and technologies of electric and hybrid vehicles. The department also has high profile faculty who have joined from the Automotive and Aerospace industry with an average of greater than 25 years of experience. The department very soon is working to offer a Master’s degree in Aerospace engineering.

Sufficient class rooms and systems are provided for students use. The department also boasts of PACE – a one of its kind partnership that General Motors has with a few selected institutes in south east Asia. The department also hosts the Auto and Aero clubs and has a very active SAE students chapter. The students have won accolades by participating in national and international events.

The department has innumerable books to cater to the students, faculty and research. The department also has on-line access to most of all international journals. The faculty have authored scholarly papers in leading journals, are key note speakers in international conferences and organize international conferences and symposia.
