The Dept. of ME faculty have advanced degrees in thermal engineering, CAD/CAM, manufacturing system design, and machine design and analysis. They use traditional and ICT-based teaching methods to ensure conceptual clarity, hands-on training, and advanced learning for students.
VIEW THE ME FACULTY
Silicon West has designed the teaching, learning, and evaluation processes to bring out the best in each student. Developed and executed by experienced academic professionals, they identify and nurture the unique strength of the students while supporting them to build new capabilities. The teaching-learning processes are student-centric and enriched with ICT-based methodologies. Beyond learning theory, students also learn by doing internships and through practice-based lessons.
The most prominent areas of research in the Department are Refrigeration Engineering, Material Testing and Automation Engineering or Robotics.
