Mechanical Engineering

Dear Friends,
Mechanical engineering is the Core Department of the G.V. Acharya College of Engineering
& Technology. The department have well qualified faculty members. Department has wellequipped laboratories.
With the growing demand for Mechanical Engineers in the Government and Private Sectors,
the Department is making the best efforts to produce highly Trained and Skilled Engineers
who can take up the challenges of the real world. The quality of academic instructions,
conduction of guidelines, and college activities are designed to produce competent and
successful engineers. In the Department, the focus is on preparing professional engineers.
As far as the Department is concerned, academic standards and practical work are the two
key parameters. To execute this parameter the department has taken the initiatives to provide
industrial work exposure by sending the students for training to make them fit for future
professional challenges. For the extra curriculum activities, the Departmental Association
(MESA) has been established by the students. This association conducts various technical
and cultural events regularly.
“Nothing is impossible for Mechanical Engineers with Skill Oriented Knowledge.”
