Students graduating from the Mechanical Engineering Department will be expected and prepared to exercise the skills and abilities (a) through (l) listed in the table of Program Outcomes below. The table also indicates how the Program Outcomes contribute to the Program Educational Objectives.

1. Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.
2. 2. Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, review research literature, and analyse complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering sciences.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modelling to complex engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.
6. 6. 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.
7. Environment and sustainability: Understand the impact of the professional engineering solutions in societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for sustainable development.
8. Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of the engineering practice.
9. Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.
10. Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.
11. Project management and finance: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the engineering and management principles and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.
12. Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.

On successful completion of the Mechanical Engineering Degree programme, the Graduatesshall exhibit the following:

1. Apply the knowledge gained in Mechanical Engineering for design and development and manufacture of engineering systems.
2. Apply the knowledge acquired to investigate research-oriented problems in mechanical engineering with due consideration for environmental and social impacts.
3. Us e the engineering analysis and data management tools for effective management of multidisciplinary projects.

STUDENT RESEARCH

No other activity provides as many benefits to students who want to get ahead than student research.  Benefits of conducting research include expanding understanding of your academic field; establishing valuable connections with faculty; gaining academic experiences that expand their resume.

Tamil Nadu State Council for Science and Technology has sponsored and financed two of the projects guided by Dr.S.Richard during 2000-2001 (“Computer Numerical Control of Indexing Mechanisms using Visual Basic”) and 2002-2003 (“Fabrication of Palmyra Tree Climber”) for Rs. 10,000 each.
