About
The under graduate program of Mechanical Engineering department with intake capacity sixty (60) was introduced in 2009, the year of inception of STAR. The intake capacity was increased to 120 in 2012 considering the demand for the program in the state of Odisha and the neighboring states as well. With the sincere effort of its well qualified faculties, the department has set up state of the art laboratories like Testing Lab (Material testing and Engine testing), Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Machine (FMHM) Lab, Heat Transfer & Refrigeration and Air Conditioning (HT & RAC) Lab, Metrology Lab and a Computational Lab. The Department of Mechanical Engineering strives to be recognized for outstanding education and research leading to produce well-qualified engineers, who are innovative, entrepreneurial and able to take challenges in advanced fields of engineering and research.
