Pragmatic Board of Management of SGGSIE&T, Nanded took an initiative of offering basic engineering programs besides the non-traditional ones already being offered by the Institute. As a consequence, Mechanical Engineering program has been started in the year 2012-13 with an intake of 60 students. For the first year of its establishment,   Production Engineering Department supported the activities of this department. It has been given a separate identity since academic year 2013-14 with provision of requisite infrastructure in terms of building, basic laboratory setup, etc. Mechanical Engineering Department offers a M. Tech. program in Mechanical – Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) besides the undergraduate program on Mechanical Engineering.

Mechanical Engineering Department boasts of quality input of students, good interaction with industries for providing the right exposure to students, dedicated faculty and association of industry experts in the form of adjunct faculty, state of the art facility for Mechanical & PLM.

The Department has a focussed approach for development in the areas of Thermal Engineering, Mechanical Design, Mechatronics, Automobile Engineering and Energy Management for its undergraduate program. The syllabus has been framed keeping these streams in mind.  M. Tech. program is an industry orientated program with strong association with leading industries in the sector. In tune with the Institute’s three pronged agenda of teaching, research and transfer of technology, the department is involved in active research in the aforementioned areas and is associating strongly with local and nearby industries for providing services.

The department offers following programmes:
