DISTINGUISHED ALUMNI FROM MECHANICAL ENGINEERING OF CIT
The Department of Mechanical Engineering is one of the earliest departments in CIT, started in the year 1956. For about six decades the department has mentored and produced eminent personalities. We would like to give you a glimpse of what CIT has contributed to the society through our alumni.
A mission to MARS! India, ISRO in particular has become the fourth agency to reach Mars, the red planet. Mangalyaan is the first inter-planetary mission in India and would you believe that CIT has an indirect contribution to it. Er. Subbiah Arunan, Project Director of India’s Mars Orbiter Mission is an alumnus of CIT. He graduated from Coimbatore Institute of Technology in 1984 as a Mechanical Engineer. The Government of India had honored him with the prestigious Padma Shri award in the year 2015 for his contributions to the Mars Orbiter Mission of Indian Space Research Organization. A salute to our CITian !

At the Service of Nation!
One cannot forget the famous words of John F Kennedy – “Ask not what your country
can do for you – ask what you can do for your country”. It is indeed honourable to work for the
nation but is it not far more superior to defend the nation at one’s own cost, self-less sacrifice.
CIT takes pride in its alumnus Rear Admiral S Nedunchezian who served the Indian
Navy for about 36 years. With more than 35 years of experience on board naval ships, machinery
trials teams, warship construction overseeing team, naval dockyard and Naval Headquarters as
no.2 in the Technical Branch, heading the field Unit Naval Ship Repair Yard with more than
1000 workforce was his unique experience where he could put forth a vision for "Transformation
to Smart Yard" and direct / guide the organisation to build infrastructure, computerise and
automate, ensure excellent QC and train the valuable manpower to be in date with latest
induction of machinery, equipment and technology and at the same time be conscious of
environment, energy conservation and implementation of Green Initiatives. During his tenure,
the yard had won the Chief of Naval Staff Trophy for Best HRD Practices consecutively for two
years.

Most of the faculty members have their Doctorates from CIT.
And the list doesn’t end here. It will continue……
“As the Sun knows, even the sky is not the limit……”
With freedom given to the students in CIT, nothing stops them from dreaming big
dreams. A dream is not simply a dream if it is brought to reality, it is an achievement, No! a
successful life and an inspiration to many that follow. “So many of our dreams at first seem
impossible, then they see improbable and then when we summon the will, they soon become
inevitable”, says a quote. That is what we believe here in our department at CIT. A few examples
have been given to you but the reality is it would take books and books to give you the
achievements of our alumni. Name any field and you will find a Mechanical Engineer who has
graduated from CIT.
This is not an exaggeration.
This is real!
Come join us… Be a part of this revolution!
