FR. C. RODRIGUES INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

About the Department

Mechanical Engineering is the most sought-out branch of Engineering. In the constantly evolving technological scenario Mechanical Engineering has been the very backbone of the industrial infrastructure. It is an area of study in which knowledge of mathematics and science are combined together with experience and judgement for fulfilling the practical human necessities.

The formal education of a Mechanical Engineer includes subjects such as Material Sciences, Strength of Materials, Theory of Machines, Mechanical Vibration, Design of Machine Elements, Fluid Mechanics, and Heat & Mass Transfer.

The Department initially was headed by Dr. Thirumalleshwar till the year 2003, followed by Dr. S.V. Kota Reddy, till November 2008. Then the Department was headed by Prof. S. M. Khot, from 2008 till 2017 and followed by Dr.Nilaj Deshmukh from 2017 till 2023. The department is currently being headed by Dr. Aqleem Siddiqui and has faculty poised to deliver quality engineering education.
