Message from The HOD

नमस्कार…

It gives me immense pride to lead a team dedicated to academic excellence, innovation, and holistic student development.

Since 2001, the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Sankalchand Patel College of Engineering has continuously evolved to meet the dynamic demands of the engineering profession. Our focus remains on nurturing technically sound, ethically strong, and socially responsible engineers who can make meaningful contributions both nationally and globally. I encourage all our students to embrace challenges, engage in research, and strive for excellence in every endeavor. Together, let us continue to build a department that inspires innovation, fosters collaboration, and upholds the highest standards of engineering education.

“उठो, जागो और तब तक मत रुको जब तक लक्ष्य की प्राप्ति न हो जाए।”
