Studying Mechanical Engineering at AMU: An insider's perspective.
Placements: About 75–76% of eligible Mechanical students got campus offers. The highest / the lowest / average package: the highest touched 57 LPA, most offers fell 3–4 LPA (the lowest), with an average of 6.5–7 LPA. Top recruiters are L&T, Cummins, Siemens, Tata Projects, NBTC Kuwait, ONGC, Honda, Yamaha, Accenture, and TCS. Internship percent & companies: Roughly 60–70% secured training in firms like ONGC, BHEL, L&T, Indian Railways, Yamaha, and Honda. Top roles offered are graduate engineer trainee, design/CAD engineer, production & quality engineer, maintenance/plant engineer, and a few technical analyst profiles in IT.
Infrastructure: Mechanical Engineering Department at ZHCET, AMU offers spacious classrooms with projectors, Wi-Fi, and well-equipped labs for Heat Transfers, Fluid Mechanics, IC Engines, CAD/CAM, and Materials Testing, supported by licensed software like AutoCAD and ANSYS. Students have access to both a departmental library and the Maulana Azad Library with rich e-resources, hostels provide twin-sharing rooms, study furniture, and routine maintenance, the mess serves affordable north-Indian and Mughlai meals, with canteens for snacks, the AMU Health Centre ensures round-the-clock medical support, sports facilities include playgrounds, courts, gymnasium, and indoor arena, creating a balanced environment for academic work, research, recreation, and overall student well-being.
Faculty: Faculty in Mechanical Engineering at ZHCET, AMU are generally well-qualified (most hold M.Tech or Ph.D.) and approachable, offering guidance in labs, projects, and career planning, teaching quality is moderately good, combining lectures with practical sessions, though some classes still follow traditional methods, the curriculum aligns with core mechanical fundamentals and includes design, thermal, and CAD courses, with moderate exposure to industry software and internships, adequate, but could include more recent trends. Semester exams are of moderate difficult if one follows lectures and lab work regularly. The pass percentage typically stays above 85–90%, making overall academic pressure manageable with consistent study.
Other: I chose this course because Mechanical Engineering gives a broad technical foundation: design, thermals, manufacturing, and materials, ZHCET has a strong heritage and alumni network. The best aspects are the experienced faculty, well-equipped laboratories, access to Maulana Azad Library, green campus, and diverse peer group, which together make learning engaging, areas for improvement include more exposure to cutting-edge tools (automation, additive manufacturing), stronger industry linkage, structured internships, and updated electives reflecting emerging technologies.

Infrastructure: In Zakir Hussain College of Engineering and Technology, many facilities are provided by the department. You will get an unlimited Wi-Fi connection. The labs in the department are very good, and the classrooms are also good with ventilation. Here is Asia's biggest university library, named Maulana Azad Library, and a library inside the department is also available. Hostel facilities are also good, the quality of food in the hostel mess is okay but not good. Medical facilities are always available for students, and there are big opportunities for sports and games like volleyball, cricket, football, badminton, skating, etc.
Faculty: Faculty members are good and helpful, with a maximum of them being Ph.D. qualified from many top IITs. They are so knowledgeable, except for some. The curriculum is relevant.

There is a fantastic life at Aligarh Muslim University.
Placements: Approximately 90% of students get placed in the mechanical engineering course. The highest package last year is 12 LPA and the lowest is the same as the average package, which is 4 LPA. Top recruiting companies for our course are LnT and Simens along with other MNCs. Almost every student gets internships, and the internship is also a part of the curriculum in mechanical engineering. Top roles like MEP engineer, HVAC engineer, design engineer, etc., are offered here.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi speed is very good all over campus. The library and labs are far better than any other college. Classrooms contain projectors and smart boards. The hostel is the main life of the university. Hostels have all types of facilities, from RO water to hot water in winter. Food is quite good as the food is regulated by the senior students with administration. Every hostel has its own canteen, and along with this, there are other canteens like college canteens and central canteen. Many sports events are held in the university.
Faculty: Teachers are very supportive and helpful. They are well-qualified from foreign universities with the best knowledge of their field. The course curriculum is very relevant to the industry and the fluid part is very good ready for industries. Semester exams are not very difficult, but the pattern is based on the GATE exam. The pass percentage is 33%.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in mechanics and mechanical equipment. The best thing about this course is the lab of the course and this course targets all fields whether it is machine learning, etc. Things that should be improved are the labs, which should be performed seriously like the foreign universities. An annual fest of the college named Zarf is the largest event of the university. Many other events like a hostel, cultural events, university day, etc., are organsied here. The campus crowd is mixed. Many Scholarships are there based on merit.
