Mechanical Engineering syllabus

The Mechanical Engineering (ME) syllabus of BMU covers all aspects of core Mechanical Engineering (design, thermal, manufacturing & industrial) to specialization in a specific domain (design, thermal, manufacturing, Industrial, automation, mechatronics, robotics, CAD, CAM, CAE etc.). This is along with ethics, language, cultural & prospective courses from basic to advanced level with theory and practical with hands-on learning and ‘learning by doing’ approach along with their applicability to build and enhance the career of a professional Mechanical Engineer.

The course curriculum is heavily engineered to line up with the present and future industrial needs. In discussion with national & international experts from industry & academia, the syllabus of each course in the curriculum is designed to provide in-depth theoretical knowledge with their application in real-life situations with a practical teaching-learning approach covering advanced technologies, software, hardware & computers applications in the course.

We give flexibility to students to choose his/ her own set of courses with a fractural credit system. In our curriculum, we offer perspective, foundation, core, core electives & open electives courses. These are school, department and student-specific, having theoretical and lab courses with practice school and co-curricular activities to completely transform an intermediate science student into a professional engineer.
The course focuses on dedicated & engineered coursework to enhance the creativity, sequencing and problem-solving skills of the students. The course also aims to develop competency and proficiency of global industry standards among students through real-time learning opportunities via the Practice School.

During the Practice School sessions, students get a chance to interact with industry experts while working on real-time projects and gain significant industry insights along with adequate on-site technical experience. Students also get an opportunity to build a network of industry professionals, mentors and references that will guide them, to advance in their professional careers quickly.

This multidimensional and innovative curriculum strives to develop all-around project management skills such as planning, organizing, directing and controlling to help the students to develop into highly qualified professionals.
