Since the inception of REVA University, School of Mechanical Engineering is involved in implementing
following best practices in various dimensions such as academics, research, outreach activities, student
development programs, project based and research based learning, student centric learning, student
competitions, industry and in-house internships, abroad internships, skill enhancement activities,
motivation for competitive exams, mini projects, major projects, industry mentored projects,
multidisciplinary projects, industry visits, technical talks by industry and academicians, certification
programs, etc.

School of Mechanical Engineering offers B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering & Mechatronics

Engineering and M.Tech in Machine design and PhD programs in various specialized streams. The
curriculum of both the graduate and the post graduate degree programs has been designed to meet the
current industry trends. The program offers numerous choices of study for the students based on interest
in the current state of art technology. Mechanical Engineering uses the principles of energy, materials and
mechanics to design and manufacture machines and devices of all types. The curriculum is designed as
outcome-based and provides practical skills and knowledge. Through the curriculum the department
strives to prepare our students for carriers in traditional mechanical Engineering fields as well as carriers
in Inter-disciplinaries in research , academia & Industry.

When we think about Mechanical engineering, what we’re talking about design, innovation & creating
systems or devices that can help the society. Since mechanical engineering is so diverse and overlaps with
many other fields of engineering, like chemical, civil, and industrial, mechanical engineers can be found
on a large variety of projects in different industries. The flexibility of this field has given mechanical
engineering bountiful job prospects and it doesn’t seem like that’s going to change anytime soon. In fact,
it’s expected to grow. There has been huge spike in demand for proficiencies in nanotechnology,
composites, and mechatronics, bio mechatronics, transportation, 3D printing, Industrial Internet of things,
Industry 4.0 .

REVA R&D centre started from school of Mechanical Engineering, carries out research in two thrust
areas (materials and metallurgy and dynamics). The Materials Research Facility at REVA University has
been established to analyze different material properties and dynamics research facility is established to
check the dynamic behavior of the material. Material and dynamic research centre at school of
mechanical engineering is funded by REVA University. Research scholars, both PG and UG students of
REVA University, other universities and industries are benefited by utilizing the instruments from the
research centre. The aim of research is to find exposure and create a space where dialogue ensues,
involving and international audience and debate. Publications play a pivotal to benchmark research work.
Faculties from the department are publishing their works in Scopus indexed journals, web of science, Q
rated journals. The faculty members also explore funded projects from VGST, DST, CSIR, DBT, UGC.
From school of Mechanical Engineering 6 patents have been filed.

REVA-TOYOTA Centre of Excellence is established in association with Toyota Kiroloskar Motors Pvt.
Ltd under CSIR scheme to educate the engineering students in the area of automobiles in particular to
working of engines. It is indeed an initiative to train the students to know the working of an Engine
through the cut section assembled model of Innova Diesel engine. the practical knowledge on Internal
Combustion Engine with parts associated like piston, connecting rod, crank shaft, fuel injection system
valve operating system , power transmission, clutch operation, gear box working etc. are given hands on.

Faculty and students in Mechanical Engineering explore product design from early concept stages
through production, focusing on design theory, methods, and practice to advance the efficiency and
effectiveness of new products. Faculty explore product creation, services, and interactive experiences that
define new product opportunities to exceed user value expectations. Students are developing models from
all areas of engineering as well focusing on inter-disciplinary projects.

One of several ways to apply learning outside the classroom at REVA is through active participation in
student organizations. There are a number of Mechanical Engineering and professional engineering
student organizations in which a student can become involved. Each organization extends networking
opportunities and leadership experiences. Department is Associated with Tribology society of india (TSI)
The Institute of Indian Foundrymen (IIF), Solar Energy Society of India (SESI) , Aeronautical Society of
India (AESI), SAE REVA Collegiate club , Fluid Power Society of India (fpsi) , Indian Society of
Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ISHRAE) , Mechanical Association for REVA
students (MARS) , REVA Robotics club , The Inquisity club, Go karting club.
