Smt. Indira Gandhi College of Engineering (SIGCE), a progressive and technologically forward institution, was established by the visionary social-work society Lokmanya Tilak Jankalyan Shikshan Sanstha in 2002. Located at Koparkhairane, Navi Mumbai, the college is comfortably accessed by both rail and road and is surrounded by world-class industrial estates and business hubs. The campus sits on 4.2 acres of clean, landscaped ground dotted with imposing instructional blocks, fully equipped laboratories and workshops, and spacious hostels for women and men.
Programmes, Pedagogy and Research: SIGCE is approved by the All India Council for Technical Education and affiliated to the University of Mumbai. It offers four-year undergraduate B.E. degrees—Computer Engineering, Information Technology, Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Artificial Intelligence & Data Science, and Computer Science and Engineering (AI & Machine Learning)—all periodically re-accredited by the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) and the NBA. The college also runs approved two-year M.E. programmes in Computer Engineering and Mechanical Design Engineering and hosts doctoral research centres recognised by the University of Mumbai. Curriculum delivery blends classroom teaching with flipped learning, MOOC integration and project-based experiential learning that addresses Industry 4.0 demands. More than 80 Ph.D.-qualified faculty, including 14 IEEE/ACM Fellows, publish 250+ research papers every year in Scopus and SCIE journals, and have already obtained twelve funded projects worth ₹7.2 crore from DST-SERB, AICTE, BRNS and Industries under the TIFAC scheme.
Social Impact and Life Beyond Academics: SIGCE is seeded in Lokmanya Tilak’s philosophy that an engineering education must return value to society. Under the ongoing Unnat Bharat Abhiyan, faculty and final-year students have deployed 120 solar streetlights in the tribal hamlet of Ulwe, introduced 50 automated micro-kitchens for Gaon Sakhi women entrepreneurs, and trained 400 schoolteachers in STEM pedagogy in Raigad district. The college has adopted a zero-liquid-discharge policy—rainwater harvesting tanks supply 65 % of daily water need, and sewage is naturally filtered by an anaerobic membrane bioreactor.
Result-oriented Faculty & First Generation Students: A good mix of highly qualified faculty members, comprising professors, Readers and Lecturers, are geared up for bestowing quality education. The college is an excellent stepping stone for first generation college students hailing from urban, rural and tribal belts providing equal opportunities and striving to smooth out inequalities. Each transcript includes a minor in Emerging Technologies driven by Siemens CoE, NVIDIA DLI and National MEMS Design.
