The department offers several post-graduate degree programmes leading to an M.Tech, M.S. or Ph.D. degree, all of which have a strong research content. About 50 students receive their PG degrees annually from our Department. The focus areas of our department are in energy (fuel cells, coal gasification and combustion), systems and control (data analysis, fault diagnosis, optimization, advanced control), process intensification (ultrasonics, microwaves, microfluidics and microreactors), biochemical and environmental engineering (waste water treatment, bioremediation of soils, air pollution monitoring), and materials (polymers, electronic materials, catalysts).
The department is equipped with good analytical facilities and is poised to significantly enhance them through grants recently obtained.
