MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

---

Vins Christian College of Engineering is situated in the midst of beautiful hills at Chunkanakdai, Kanyakumari District overlooking the Nagercoil-Trivandrum National Highway NH47.Intereetingly the college is nested in the lap of a vast expanse of lush green trees and paddy fields dotted with ponds full of beautiful flowers, swaying their heads in the gentle breeze. The enchantingly beautiful landscape leads an ideal, calm and conductive atmosphere to the college most suitable for academic pursuits.

DEPARTMENT PROFILE

Established in 2004, the department has blossomed into a Major Education Centre essentially due to the combined efforts of a very dedicated team of staff and students who are committed to the overall development of department and institute. The department has produced outstanding engineers, who have successfully proved their professional competence in their respective disciplines. The department lays special emphasis on human values, ethics, apart from academic excellence.

The department has well equipped 12 laboratories, computational facilities to support academic programs and carrying out collaborative and interdisciplinary. The department has well equipped workshop consisting of 3 different sections. The workshop is having small & heavy duty machines, with safety measures in line with the industrial standards.

We offer an interactive learning environment with a good blend of theory and practice. Chapter organizes a number of co-curricular and extra-curricular activities for the all-round development of the students.

To conclude, I would like to reiterate that, we are committed to produce outstanding engineers, withsound theoretical and practical knowledge, exposure to industry and respect for human values.

To create world class mechanical engineers capable of practice engineering ethically with a solid vision to become great leaders in academia, industries and society.

PROGRAM OUTCOMES (POs)

1. Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.
2. 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.
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 modeling to complex engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.
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.
