DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

Name of the Program: DIPLOMA IN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING.

Course detail:

ABOUT DEPARTMENT:

Mechanical Engineering Department established in 1959, is one of the pioneering departments of Government Polytechnic Dahod Institute is running under Directorate of Technical Education, Government of Gujarat. Diploma Mechanical engineering program is approved by All India council for technical education (AICTE), New Delhi and is affiliated to Gujarat Technological University, Ahmedabad.

Mechanical engineering is an engineering branch that combines physics and mathematics principles with material science to design, analysis, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. The mechanical engineering field requires an understanding of core areas including mechanics, dynamics, thermodynamics, material science, structural analysis and electricity. In addition to these core principles, mechanical engineers use tools such as computer aided design (CAD), computer aided manufacturing (CAM) to design and analyze manufacturing plants, industrial equipment, heating and cooling equipments and robotics. It is the branch of engineering that involves the design, production, and operation of machinery.
