CTL Engineering Lab
Our Engineering Lab spans two floors and supports hands-on teaching in mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, structures, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and machine dynamics. Its modular teaching systems allow students to move seamlessly from fundamental principles to advanced engineering applications.
Capacity
Supports 134 students across two interconnected labs.
