Muffakham Jah college of engineering & Technology (MJCET), committed to quality education, was established in the year 1980 by Sultan-Ul-Uloom Education Society (SUES) which is formed by a group of visionaries & intellectuals from various walks of life. It was their dream to contribute a pool of talented engineers and technologists to the national pool so that they could contribute towards the development and progress of the nation.
The college is approved by AICTE and affiliated to Osmania University, Hyderabad. It has been accredited by NAAC with Grade A+ in the year 2024. NBA accreditation was obtained in the year 2002 and the application for reaccreditation is pending with the National Board of Accreditation. Over the years MJCET has emerged as a premier institution that believes in the mantra of providing Quality Education.
Offering 7 BE courses over four years of Engineering with an intake of 840 and two year ME Courses in four specialization with an intake of 84, the institute has carved a niche in the Engineering Education and presents diverse options of a rewarding career to the aspiring engineering graduates.
Establishment of Research Centres in five Departments is an indication of the institutional commitment towards furtherance of knowledge through research. Research Scholars allotted by the Osmania University pursue their Ph. D. research in these research centres.
To shape the aspiring graduates to well-rounded engineers the institute maintains stringent academic standards, adopts innovative teaching methodologies, encourages co-curricular and extra-curricular activities and creates a platform to expose the learners to a variety of challenges related to academic, societal, cultural and industry-related issues. There are various Students’ Chapters and Clubs in the college that not only create an environment to transform the graduates to multi-skilled and multi-tasking individuals but also help them bloom to future leaders.
“To be a part of the universal human quest for development and progress by contributing high calibre, ethical and socially responsible engineers who meet the global challenge of building a modern society in harmony with nature.”.

He completed MBA (HR) from IGNOU and diploma on “Quality Reliability and Operations Research” from Indian Statistical Institute, Madras.
He started his career at BHEL Corporate R & D Hyderabad undertaking several developmental projects in the area of Non-destructive testing of power plant components and carried out a number of Failure Investigations & Residual Life Assessment Studies. He has four patents to the credit and contributed a number of technical papers in National and International seminars as well as journals. His papers have been published in Scopus and Web of Science. He also successfully completed a project titled “Castability studies of castings for Advanced Ultra Super Critical Power Plant (AUSC)” as the Principal Investigator. The project was completed under the supervision of the office of Principal Scientific Adviser to Prime Minister.
Dr Rawat is a trained NDT personnel and has received training in various non-destructive evaluation techniques at EPRI USA, IRIS USA and Physical Acoustics UK. During his tenure at Corporate R&D Hyderabad, has guided a number of M.Tech students mainly from NIT Warangal and is currently a supervisor for the PhD student of Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University (JNTU), Hyderabad. He also had been a reviewer for International Journal of Industrial Chemistry. Being superannuated from BHEL as the General Manager in August 2019, he joined Greater Noida Institute of Technology (GNIOT), Greater Noida as a Professor & Head, Mechanical Engineering Department. As the conference coordinator at GNIOT he successfully organized International e-Conference on “Cutting Edges in Mechanical Engineering” on February 20, 2021dinator. He joined MJCET as thePrincipal on 15th Nov 2021.
Accreditation is vital for an educational institution since the recognition from an accrediting body/agency ensures that the accredited institution / program maintains the desirable academic standards. It also attests the fact that the institute offers the best infrastructure to support the teaching-learning process.
The two major accrediting bodies are:
These accreditations not only place an institute at a higher pedestal in the global academic map but also convince the stakeholders about the enhanced employability scope in a globalized multi-cultural work space, thereby improving the campus placements.

The teaching fraternity of MJCET is best known for their intellectual virtue in their respective fields, stimulating teaching techniques, dynamic enthusiasm, sound character, flexibility and their grounded ethical confidence. The strength of MJCET is indeed a reflection of their skills, innovation and passion.
In their intellectual pursuit, the self-motivated faculty of MJCET not only take responsibility of shaping future engineers but are also very conscious about their own professional development. Thus, they exhibit deep involvement in cutting-edge research and keep themselves abreast with new developments in the realm of science and technology.
The greatness of a professional institution does not lie only in generating greater numbers in terms of university ranks or students’ placements, but also depends on its research culture that aims at impacting the society by large with its research innovations. The successful patented projects such as ‘Solar Powered Spinning Wheel’ or ‘Personal Safety System to Protect Individual from Attackers’ indeed prove this very objective of materializing a novel idea to touch the lives of common people in the society. In addition, the faculty have been extensively engaged in publishing articles in nationally and internationally recognized journals. They have authored books, delivered scholarly lectures, presented papers on national and international conferences and seminars and embraced various service oriented roles.
There are 173 faculty members working in various branches of MJCET out of which 28 are professors, 31 are Associate Professors and 111 are Assistant Professors. The Faculty-Student ratio is 1:20.

In the era of globalisation the role of research in an academic institution is essential for its sustainability and growth. MJCET believes that it is imperative to have knowledge-driven growth based on innovative ideas. Behind every research there is an inquisitive mind that longs to go beyond the set frame. The research and development initiatives taken by our institute are anchored on building a research culture among students and faculty which in turn strengthen the knowledge foundation. The valuable knowledge gained through research enables the faculty to make significant value-addition to the classroom teaching and consequently help students to internalize the theoretical knowledge to come up with technological solutions with societal impact. The institute provides grants-in-aid for individual as well as collaborative work related to futuristic research that promises to solve multifarious issues faced by the society. The Research and Development centre also assists faculty, research scholars and students in filing research proposals for grants from various funding agencies like DST, AICTE, MHRD etc. and also facilitates the process of filing of IPRs like patents and copy rights.
The research ambience is consolidated with the state-of-the-art laboratories, research centres, highly equipped library, liberal funding and most importantly, the self-motivated and passionate faculty who along with their expert teaching aid in evolution of the institute as a knowledge-reservoir. The successful patents attest the fact that, when an institution aims at catalysing the germination of ideas, it is bound to create its brand in the academic and in the industrial realm.

MJCET strongly believes that the true objectives of an Engineering programme would never be complete if the focus is laid only on empowering learners with technical competencies, but not on bringing a well-rounded personality development.
MJCET embraces several initiatives so that learners’ hard skills can be intertwined with essential soft skills and life skills. An array of extracurricular activities and structured co-curricular activities is encouraged and guided by various students’ chapters and clubs in the college like IEEE, SAE, EWB, ICI, IEI, ACM, CSE, Orators’ Club etc. The faculty members encourage students to maximize the benefit of their educational journey by associating themselves with various student bodies and thus strive for excellence by the right amalgamation of body, heart and mind.
