Department of Mechanical Engineering
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering (Cyber Security) focuses on developing technically competent and ethically responsible engineers capable of addressing modern cybersecurity challenges.
With strong foundations in computing and specialization in security systems, cryptography, and data protection, the department prepares students to meet national and global technological demands.
Real-time projects, industry exposure, and practical learning form the core of the department’s academic approach.
Programmes offered
From building bridges to building aircrafts, Mechanical engineers do it all. This field is indeed all-encompassing. The principles in Mechanical Engineering like Kinematics, Thermodynamics and Energy are used in so many arenas right from Industrial Manufacturing to Information Technology. So, the demand for Mechanical Engineers is always sky-rocketing.
At DCE, we ensure that our Mechanical Engineering students get a strong foothold in the basics while forging ahead into more complex areas of mechanics. Our laboratory is well-stocked and students get a real-time grasp of theoretical concepts with livewire projects. Our Mechanical Engineers are lapped up by top companies during campus recruitments each year.
