Mechanical department has developed centre of excellence facilities of industrial and research standards. Industrial purpose Vertical Machining Centre is one of the widely used in industries and hence number of consultancy projects are executed on the same. vertical machining centers (VMCs) are machine shop staples. These milling machines have vertically oriented spindles that approach workpieces mounted on their table from above and commonly perform 2.5- or 3-axis machining operations. They are less costly than horizontal machining centers (HMCs), which makes them attractive to small job shops as well as larger machining operations. In addition, the performance of these machines has increased over the years, leveraging technologies such as high-speed spindles and advanced CNC capabilities (including conversational control programming). Ancillary equipment is also available to increase the flexibility and capability of these machines, including spindle speeders, angle heads, tool- and part-probes, quick-change workholding devices, and rotary indexers to enable four- or five-axis machining work.
Institute has PX Series of vertical machining centre to develop ability to cope up with various arena of demanding manufacturing industry. PX Series puts its position for a broad range of working area in 3-Axis segment to be a productivity partner with better rigidity & compatibility to give output for various application of machining solution.
Department has developed two research labs namely I.C. engine and Material Science and Testing Lab. I. C. engine lab has Variable Compression ratio engine, petrol and diesel test rigs which are used by M.tech and P.hD. students from our institute as well as from other institutes conduct their research work.
Material Science and Testing Lab has bottom loaded programmable furnace with automatic stirring arrangement, inverted binocular optical microscope, Computerised Universal testing Machine, Hardness Testing Machines which is also used for research purpose.

The Department of Civil Engineering has established a new Training and Skill Development Centre in association with Engineering Design and Research Pvt. Ltd., Ghaziabad, under the supervision of Dr. Santosh Kumar Singh (Principal Structural & Design Consultant). The Centre provides training on design and detailing of precast / cast-in-situ steel and RCC structures including design of industrial buildings, pre-engineered buildings, and elevated large span connecting bridges, road under-passes, elevated / underground storage tanks, storage structures and hoppers. Further, the Centre also extends it services for training and skill development of students and faculty members for designing many RCC structures including high-rise buildings, silos, machine foundations, etc. Furthermore, the centre provides exposure towards strength assessments of old structures and retrofitting, feasibility reports, tender specifications & drawings, approval of fabrication drawings and designer’s supervision on site.

Industrial Research and Consultancy Development Centre (IRCDC):
The civil engineering department established a consultancy cell named as Industrial Research and Consultancy Development Center (IRCDC) in collaboration with Engineering Design And Research Private Limited (EDRPL), Ghaziabad, whose area of operation is to provide research and consultancy services to Indian and International projects while KIET, Ghaziabad is providing world class technical and managerial education with the assistance of highly qualified, experienced & skilled faculty and supporting technical staff taking care of lab facilities.
The cell provides services in the field of research, engineering modelling, computational work, software development, lab testing, including the design services for retrofitting of structures and inspection and structural auditing in collaboration with EDRPL, Ghaziabad.

The KIET Drug Discovery and Drug Interaction Centre is equipped with excellent facilities and capabilities. We cover the entire value chain from drug discovery to medicinal chemistry optimization. Our goal is the discovery of novel therapeutics for diseases with a high unmet medical need. 

The center of excellence is equipped with the latest software and machines to cater to the requirements of computational drug discovery.

ML Lab consists of GPU Machine with NVIDIA GTX 1080i, and we are using CUDA Libraries with Tensorflow and Pytorch to train our Machine Learning Models. This Lab is dedicated to DIY Projects in the domain of IoT and Embedded.We are working with Arduino and Raspberry Pi3 here in our lab. We have all the related setup i.e. Soldering Iron, PCB, Motor, Breadboard, Wheels, DIY Car assembling KITS, Spy Cams, Microphones, Capacitors, Resistors, and all other related stuff. We also have an Humanoid Robot with 17DOF.
