A close-up view of the department — the Head of Department’s message, industry partnerships, laboratory infrastructure and ongoing academic activity.

Dear colleagues and students, welcome to the Department of Mechanical Engineering at BGSIT — Adichunchanagiri University.
We have a strong undergraduate program in mechanical engineering. The primary focus of our curriculum is to impart technical know-how to students, promote their problem solving skills and innovation of new technologies. Department plans to offer interdisciplinary courses. Students are encouraged to take projects with social relevance and focus on agricultural equipment and energy saving sectors. Beyond lectures, the department takes interest in personality development, career counseling, and mentoring.
Faculty members have excellent academic credentials and are involved in cutting edge research with publications in high impact journals. If you have any queries after browsing the department webpage, please contact me.
I wish all the Students and Faculty a great academic career.
