together as a team for the success of this Newsletter.
Here comes the 2017-18 Edition! Our students have demonstrated their capabilities
and brilliance by securing internship in highly reputed international organizations.
Our faculty members and students regularly present their research findings in
various academic conferences. We are very proud to tell you that we have signed
MOU’s with leading industrial organizations. This Newsletter highlights the
academic achievements of the Department of Mechanical Engineering during the
period, 2017-18
In an organization any initiative needs to be celebrated and treasured. As we embark
on the task of transforming the Institution into one of the premier institutes
globally, we have introduced innovative programmes; signed MOU’s and created
partnerships with various industries and academia in order to meet the growing
demands of existing and prospective students.
There shall be many other publications down the line, this one shall always remain
special for the Department, the Institution, the faculty members and students. The

Since the beginning, trees have furnished us with two of life’s essentials, food and oxygen. As we evolved,
they provided additional necessities such as shelter, medicine, and tools. Today, their value continues to
increase and more benefits of trees are being discovered as their role expands to satisfy the needs created by
our modern lifestyles.
Considering the importance of trees and keeping in mind about the future generation, the Final year
students from the Department planted 50 plant samplings near the football ground, STP plant & the PG
block.
