PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES (PEOs)
The Program Educational Objectives of Mechanical Engineering undergraduate program are:
PEO 1: To educate and produce graduates who will have basic and system-level knowledge in engineering disciplines in general and Mechanical Engineering, in particular. The curriculum aims at imparting a synergic view of industrial system vis-a-vis the environment, society and economics.
PEO 2: To educate and produce graduates who will turn out to be successful professionals cum leaders with ethical responsibilities, proven expertise, communication skills, both as individuals as well as team members who will work in a broad range of industries, government, academia, research, consultancy and entrepreneurship.
PEO 3: To provide all the elements necessary to develop capability and motivation for higher studies and aptitude for technological development.
PEO 4: To educate and produce graduates who will retain the intellectual curiosity, with the motivation of lifelong learning and continuous improvement of knowledge and skill for flexible response and adaptability to fast and ever changing technological, management, social and economic systems, globally.
PPROGRAM SPECIFIC OUTCOME (PSOs)
Mechanical Engineering graduates will be able to
PSO 1: Apply knowledge of basic engineering, mechanical engineering, mathematics, physical sciences and engineering management to develop simple to complex mechanical engineering systems.
PSO 2: Identify, investigate, model and analyze engineering challenges and problems in the diverse fields of mechanical engineering e.g. thermo-fluid, manufacturing, design, industrial management and in interdisciplinary fields including research, with career options in the fields as stated.
PSO 3: Smoothly dovetail into the real world of Mechanical Engineering as a finished product.
Program Outcomes (POs)
Mechanical Engineering Graduates will be able to:
- Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.
- Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, review research literature, and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering sciences.
- Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
- Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusions.
- Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modeling to complex engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.
- The engineer and society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional engineering practice.
