About
Production Engineering is a specialization of
Mechanical Engineering, pertaining to manufacturing technology and management science.
It has unfolded to become the hub of the global revolutions, commencing global
transformations over and over again. Advanced Production Technology is still in its
emerging stages and is anticipated to bring in substantial growth and efficiency in
production processes.
SCOPE of Production Engineering
With the emergence of Production Engineering as
an independent discipline, its importance was realized and in 2014, Under-Graduate
course in Production Engineering was introduced with the following objectives:
-
Foster academic brilliance.
-
Introduce a set of skills, competences and attitudes based on market and
scientific knowledge.
-
Supplement students and faculty with sufficient research capabilities.
-
Acquaint students and faculty with advanced manufacturing technologies.
-
Expose students to actual practices through training in industries.
Work opportunities are available in public and
private sector manufacturing organizations engaged in implementation, development and
management of new production processes, information and control systems, and computer
controlled inspection, assembly and handling. Due to its diversity, job opportunities
lie in both core manufacturing and IT sectors.
Vision
To emerge as one of the finest and recognized creators of highly skilled engineers capable of
aiding major and leading industries.
Mission
-
To offer high-quality education and in turn produce highly-skilled
Production Engineers familiar with traditional and non-traditional
manufacturing as well as Advanced Production Technologies.
-
To offer scope for research and produce Research-oriented Engineers
capable of aiding the area with research and development.
-
To indulge students in group-learning and projects and encourage teamwork.
-
To make students conversant with tools and machines through practical classes in
laboratories.
-
To familiarize students with working experience and conditions
through industrial trainings.
-
To encourage students and faculty towards research-oriented learning.
