Indian Institutes of Technology - IIT Guwahati

Mechanical Engineering Department

The Department of Mechanical Engineering at IIT Guwahati is continuously striving to achieve excellence in education, academic and industry oriented research as well as consultancy work with service to the society.

We aim to provide our students with a perfect blend of intellectual and practical experiences, that helps them to serve our society and address a variety of needs. At the end of our program, students are prepared for entry-level work as a mechanical engineer as well as for the post-graduate study in mechanical engineering or in another discipline, where a fundamental engineering background constitutes a desirable foundation.

Academic course work and projects are designed to endow students with the ability to apply knowledge of science, mathematics, and engineering, and the capability to work effectively in multidisciplinary teams, providing leadership and technical expertise. With a solid grounding in the principles and practice of mechanical engineering, our undergraduates are ready to engage in ethical approaches to engineering, with concern for society and the environment.

Our program at the postgraduate level aligns academic course work with research, to prepare scholars in specialized areas within the field of mechanical engineering. Research topics focus on industrial needs. Several research laboratories in our department are equipped with the state-of-art facilities to carry out the research activities. Both undergraduates and postgraduates are well placed in leading industries as well as in the higher research level institutions of international recognition,

Our website will take you to the tour of different research facilities, academic programmes offered and the faculty/staff who are contributing to the department to make it a success. We hope you enjoy our webpage!
