Inauguration of JSSATE-TOYOTA Centre of Excellence

The Department of Mechanical Engineering has signed an MoU with M/s. Toyota Kirloskar Mo-

tor Pvt. Ltd., Bengaluru. As a part of the MoU, the company has donated two engines and

transmission systems. These systems are prepared into cut sections to have a real experience

of how an engine and the transmission system work. The students of our department will be

benefitted by this centre to a greater extent.

The centre was inaugurated on 22nd

November 2019, at 11 am by Mr. Kiran H J., Manager-

External Affairs (State), Mr. Prashanth S., Deputy Manager - External Affairs (State) from M/s.
