Department of Mechanical Engineering

About Department

The department of Mechanical Engineering was established in 1994, having illustrious history and offers Bachelor of Engineering, Master of Engineering and Doctoral degree programme. The department is vibrant with several activities round the year. We have research focus that benefits industry, society and the environment. The department is fortified with highly motivated faculty members, who besides their regular activities of teaching, do research and interact with industries. Faculties are actively involved in different sponsored projects funded by University of Mumbai, ICMR, SERB and most of our projects are sponsored or implemented in various industries.


The Department is well equipped with state-of-the-art laboratories and infrastructural facilities in thrust areas. It has advanced laboratories of Manufacturing, Thermal Engineering, Fluids Engineering, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning, latest tools in the work shop, welding shop and carpentry. It also has seven advanced computing centres with software in Finite Element Analysis and Modeling, Automation etc.


The department is headed by Dr. Jayesh J. Dange with 25 years of experience. He completed his post-graduation in CAD/CAM and automation from VJTI, Mumbai in 2003 followed by his Ph.D. in "Application of CAD in the biomedical field" from SPCOE, Andheri in 2015. His research interest includes CAD/CAM, Additive manufacturing, automation, biomedical, environmental science, Engineering management, etc. He is one of the University approved research guide associated with the Lokmanya Tilak College of Engineering research center. He has guided many post-graduation students and has been guiding Ph.D. students. He is actively involved in the syllabus revision committee, result moderation committee, University paper setting, and assessment, etc.
