About the Institute

Government Engineering College, Thrissur is acentre of technical excellence and is one of the

prestigious technical educational institutions inKerala. Foundation stone of the college was laid

by late Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the first PrimeMinister of India, on 26 th April 1958. The col-lege campus is spread over an area of 75 acresand is located at Ramavarmapuram which isabout 5 km from the heart of Thrissur Town andabout 6 km from Thrissur Railway Station. Thecollege is offering undergraduate courses in 8

branches of engineering and postgraduate anddoctoral programme in many disciplines.

About the Department

Mechanical Engineering Department is one ofthe oldest and the largest departments of the in-stitute. The department offers two post graduate

programmes, Production Engineering andInternal Combustion Engines and Turbo Ma-chinery apart from the undergraduate pro-gramme in Mechanical Engineering. The depart-ment is a research centre of the University ofCalicut and also a QIP centre for higher studiesapproved by AICTE.

About the TEQIP

Technical Education Quality Improvement Pro-gramme (TEQIP) of Government of India aimsto improve the quality of Technical Education inEngineering Institutions across the country by

providing inputs like modernization of labora-tories/workshops, library, faculty development,research and improve interaction with Industriesto become dynamic, demand driven, qualityconscious, responsive to rapid economic andtechnological developments occurring both at

national and international levels.Course Objective

Solution of many of the engineering research problems are complex and hence require exten-sive computation. Heuristics are considered asthe best solution methodology for these prob-lems. The present course titled Soft ComputingTechniques in Research addresses various solu-tion methodologies to such complex problems.

The course is designed to get broad understand-ing about structure of various complex combina-torial problems, its area of application in variousdisciplines, various solution methodologies anddifferent computational tools used.
