M.E. CAD/CAM or Master of Engineering in CAD/CAM is a two-year postgraduate Engineering program. CAD (Computer-Aided Design) provides a convenient means to create designs for almost every engineering discipline. It can be used for architectural design, landscape design, interior design, civil and surveying, mechanical design, electrical engineering, plant design, industrial design, duct design, electronic circuit design, plumbing design, textile design, and product design. CAM (Computer-aided manufacturing) is the use of computer-based software tools that assist engineers and machinists in manufacturing or prototyping product components. CAM is a programming tool that makes it possible to manufacture physical models using computer-aided design (CAD) programs. CAM creates real-life versions of components designed within a software package. The course provides knowledge and skill development in applying computer and scientific principles related to solving engineering and manufacturing problems.

Career Scope

Mechanical engineering graduates are always in huge demand. Here is a look at some of the top recruiting industries that are always on the lookout for skilled mechanical engineers - Machine tools manufacturing industries, Pumps and Motors manufacturing industries, Automobile Industries, Aerospace Industries, Robotics White Goods Industries, Power plants and Foundries and many more. When we talk about the different job roles for mechanical engineers, the same can be broadly classified into the following few segments

  • Design - In this role, the mechanical engineers would be responsible for drafting technical sketches either with tools or computers.
  • Production - The production job role usually involves consultation and supervision in the manufacturing of machines and their components.
  • Analysis and Testing - In this job role, mechanical engineers should be responsible for analysis and testing of machine parts, systems and equipment.
  • Installation & Maintenance - The job role involves knowledge of installation of machine parts in the industrial location, along with their proper maintenance as per the provided specifications.
  • Research – In this job responsibilities would include researching and implementing findings for the development of new products using the latest technologies.
