About ME

GITA has recorded a stupendous growth acquiring the reputation of a high quality, premier educational institution. Mechanical Engineering was established in the academic year 2005-2006 with four years Bachelor Degree course with 60 students’ intake strength. Subsequently seeing the infrastructure and academic facility the intake strength was enhanced to 120 in the academic year 2012-2013. Further it was increased to 180 in the year 2017-18. Seeing the current job scenario the student strength at present has been reduced to 120. Apart from that the department is imparting three Post-graduate courses i.e. in Defense Technology, Thermal Engineering and Production Engineering.

Message from HOD

Dr. Manoj Kumar Pradhan

Professor and Head of Department
Department of Mechanical Engineering

Welcome to the Department of Mechanical Engineering. Mechanical Engineering is a branch of engineering and technology, which deals with the favorable application of the laws of nature in micro/macro level. In the micro level the effect of quanta of energy bundle prompts the development of new areas of study, such as the nuclear fission/fusion to the generation of electricity and power without disrupting the eco-system. Development of power from both conventional and non-conventional sources of nature breeds the Power Plants. Then, the macro level analysis creates the opportunity to study the material and its properties which leads to the science and art on designing prospects. For this reason, our faculties are imparting some fundamental knowledge to all students enrolling in engineering. During the under graduate study we inculcate the basic fundamentals of engineering to ensure that a young brain could allow to understand anything happening under this solar system. Hence, someone will visualize the breadth and length of Mechanical Engineering. After that, the Post Graduate (PG) study enables one to educate himself to unveil the secrets of natural laws in a particular area, so that it promotes a skilled professional. The Doctor in Philosophy (Ph D) in this branch opens a mindset to understand, analyze and answer the questions ‘How and Why’ in a particular focused area. In other words the in depth study starts only after graduation level, which aims to foster awareness among the budding technocrats, researchers and scientists.

Vision of Department

The Mechanical Engineering Department strives to be recognized globally for outstanding education and research leading to produce well-qualified engineers, who are innovative, entrepreneurial and able to take challenges in advanced fields of engineering and research

Mission of Department
