B. Tech Program Mechanical Engineering

The Department of Mechanical Engineering at IIT Guwahati is continuously striving to achieve excellence in education, academic and industry oriented research as well as consultancy work with service to the society.

We aim to provide our students with a perfect blend of intellectual and practical experiences, that helps them to serve our society and address a variety of needs. At the end of our program, students are prepared for entry-level work as a mechanical engineer as well as for the post-graduate study in mechanical engineering or in another discipline, where a fundamental engineering background constitutes a desirable foundation.

Academic course work and projects are designed to endow students with the ability to apply knowledge of science, mathematics, and engineering, and the capability to work effectively in multidisciplinary teams, providing leadership and technical expertise. With a solid grounding in the principles and practice of mechanical engineering, our undergraduates are ready to engage in ethical approaches to engineering, with concern for society and the environment.

The B.Tech. program offers a comprehensive fundamental education in mechanical engineering emphasising basic sciences and mathematics followed by engineering sciences and engineering design. The curriculum covers all disciplines of mechanical engineering including thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, solid mechanics, materials, manufacturing, computer aided design and drafting, dynamics, control, mechanical systems, and mechanical design.
