Department of Mechanical Engg.

RENEWABLE ENERGY CLUB

Dr. K. V. Narasimha Rao
Mr. G.G. Sastry
In-Charge Head
This is the Ever Green Branch and one of the largest departments having well-qualified and experienced staff.

The Mechanical Engineering Department is well developed such that the Institution will have a close interaction with Industry for sharing knowledge and facilities.

Industry-Institute Interaction

The Department of Mechanical Engineering has received sub-contract jobs from M/s. Sri Bhavani Castings (P) Limited, Kakinada and successfully completed their first phase of orders to their satisfaction. Further, RIT also received few samples from them on material testing of their components, which is being done in our Material Testing Lab. Negotiations are going on to bag further orders from not only M/s Sri Bhavani Castings but also other local industries.

The Department caters to the needs of students of other disciplines as well. It provides sound knowledge in Engineering Graphics, which is known as language of Engineers and Engineering Mechanics. The applications are contributing substantially for the development of modern engineering.
