Alliance reimagines the idea of the university by creating a community that leads the charge against the complex challenges of the 21st century. The university conceives research to be the essence of all teaching and learning practices. A unity between research and teaching is promoted to extend the frontiers of knowledge in order to solve real world problems at the local, national, and global scale. For this purpose, the university seeks to be the nerve centre of interaction between the industry, the government, the civil society, and the community at large.

A designed convergence of the business, engineering, law and liberal arts units precipitates transdisciplinarity as the core academic philosophy.

Freely working across divergent streams of knowledge like public policy and data science, technology and law, physics and philosophy or businesses and rhetoric, transdisciplinarity nurtures a dynamic foundation for the spirit of collaboration, inquiry, and enterprise.

The Mechanical Engineering Department at Alliance University conveys an instructive program of study that equips its students to become scholarly pioneers in the industry, government, and the scholarly community. Graduates in mechanical engineering are adept at designing innovations and technological advancements in the high-technology areas of mechanical systems, robotics, nanotechnology, and mechatronics, and are renowned for their generalist engineering expertise.
