Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) - Kanpur

The Mechanical Engineering programme trains the students in the methods of engineering science and in the application of these methods to analyse, conceive and design engineering systems. The course deals with a number of engineering sciences, theoretical and experimental solution of physical problems and design of systems relevant to the contemporary industrial world. This course's areas of specialisation include Energy Conversion and Power Systems, Mechanics of Solids and Stress Analysis, Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Science,; Automatic Controls and Engineering Design and so on.

Special course-oriented laboratories enable the students to undertake various experiments. The mechanical engineering department provides a postgraduate programme leading to M. Tech and Ph. D. degrees in four broad streams namely Solid Mechanics and Design, Fluid Mechanics and Thermal Sciences, Manufacturing Sciences and Mechatronics.
