The mandate of the Institute is to provide higher technical education and conduct research in the various branches of Engineering, Science, Technology and Management. Originally established in 1961 as a Regional Engineering College (REC), it was transformed into a National Institute of Technology in 2002. The Institute offers 11 UG programs, 29 PG programs and doctoral degree programs in Engineering, Science, Technology and Management. With its proactive collaborations with a multitude of research organisations, academic institutions, and industries, the institute has set a new style for its functioning under the NIT regime.
Department of Mechanical Engineering
The Department of Mechanical Engineering (MED) is the largest department in NIT Calicut, which was established in 1961. The department offers regular undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral degree programmes. Besides teaching, the faculty members are involved in outreach activities, sponsored research and consultancy works. It regularly conducts GIAN courses, Faculty Development Programs, Short Term Training Programs, and Technical Workshops under continuing education programs for industry and academic personnel. Over and above, the faculty of the department delivers expert lectures and keynote addresses for many technical and management institutions. MED offers two BTech. programs, six M.
