Automobile Engineering

The Department of Automobile Engineering was started in the academic year 2001-05 with a sanctioned intake of 60 students. The department has dedicated and qualified faculty members. The department follows the syllabus of the Anna University and to supplement the syllabus, guest lectures and Industrial visits are organized. Laboratories are well equipped with latest equipments such as modern engines, chassis dynamometer, exhaust gas analyzer, pressure crank angle measurement systems, fuel testing equipments, etc.

The department is consistently getting Anna University Ranks in past 2 years.

2013 : Batch secured Gold Medal. 2014 : Batch secured 6th Rank .

Our students are given special inplant training for 1 week at ATS-ELGI, Coimbatore on current scenario in Auto sector. All the students are arranged for Industrial visits to Auto industries such as Ashok Leyland, ARAI,Volkswagon,Ucal etc. and in Auto Expo in Delhi. Every year the department conducts National level seminar like Auto Meet, Autofest on Recent trends in Auto technology, Alternative fuels etc. with Industry experts and eminent Professors from IIT,MIT etc. and also conducts Workshop on RC car designing. Our students are also given proper Training in Soft skills, Communication skills etc. every year. .

Our students are placed in industries such as Maruti Udyog Ltd., India pistons, Ucal, Bosch, Caterpiller etc. Most of the Alumni are occupying Managerial position in the Auto industries where they are working.

Vision
