State-of-the-art laboratories equipped with modern instruments for hands-on learning.
The Automotive Components Laboratory, one of the key laboratories in the Department of Automobile Engineering, was established in 2010. The laboratory is equipped with a multi-cylinder engine, a four-wheel drive system and an air brake system, among other facilities. The lab includes both academic and research-based equipment, enabling students to gain practical skills in the dismantling and assembly of engines, engine components and chassis components.
The Engine Performance and Emission Testing Laboratory, one of the key laboratories in the Department of Automobile Engineering, was established in 2011. It provides faculty and students with the resources to conduct experimental research on internal combustion engines. The laboratory includes both academic and research-based equipment to study combustion characteristics, engine performance and emission measurement. All engines are equipped with eddy current dynamometers, which enhance loading accuracy.
The Automotive Electrical and Electronics Laboratory was established in 2015 for academic purposes. It enables students to identify charging, starting, ignition and accessory circuit components, understand their functions and maintenance procedures and learn about different types of automotive wiring, terminals and wiring diagrams.
This laboratory helps students to develop highly focused, independent practical skills in the study of fuels and lubricants. It enables students to determine the properties of various fuels and lubricants and compare them with standard specifications to assess their quality. This laboratory complements the theoretical components of the Automotive Fuels and Lubricants Testing course.
The Department of Automobile Engineering has a Vehicle Servicing and Testing Laboratory equipped with highly sophisticated testing instruments. This laboratory is used for the complete servicing of both two-wheelers and four-wheelers. It also includes a car fitted with onboard diagnostic equipment.
