Production Engineering is a specialised area of Mechanical Engineering. The objective of the discipline is to enable engineers to improve efficiency and effectiveness of manufacturing and service sector Industries. The curriculum includes basic mechanical engineering subjects. Some of them are engineering mechanics, the strength of materials, machine design, thermodynamics, heat transfer etc. The course makes graduates compatible with the existing and emerging needs of the industry. B.E or B.Tech in Industrial and Production. Engineering is a four-year programme. Those who have done B.E or B.Tech in Industrial and Production Engineering would understand existing technological trends and help to add new technology to the existing system. Most leading manufacturing houses look out for engineers who specialise in Industrial Production so as to reduce cost, increase efficiency and make their products marketable in the competitive era. One can pursue M.Tech in Industrial and Production Engineering after successful completion of BE/B.Tech.
