Mechanical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering Department is one of the Most productive departments of NRI Institute of Research & Technology (NIRT), Bhopal (MP) India. The department is associated with professional bodies such as EICHER Tractor  Prema solution for CAD, under which various activities are taking place.

The department also conducts various certification courses in advanced technologies such as CAD / CAM, CNC, in association with reputed professional training institutes and within the institute’s own facilities. The department has state of art laboratories and infrastructures. Various Funded Research Projects and Consultancy projects are also taken up. Students of the department are actively involved in various extracurricular activities and extension activities. Students from the department have developed Indigenous Electric Vehicle, a refrigeration test rig with computer control, and also developed other projects of the national interest.

Vision
