Entropy generation analysis of MHD Maxwell visco elasticity-based micropolar fluid flow past a stretching sheet through porous media with radiation and thermal slip has been investigated. Using suitable similarity transformations the coupled non-linear partial differential equations of motion and energy have been converted into a set of non-linear ordinary differential equations. The solutions of reduced equations are computed numerically by RK-4 method with shooting technique. The effects of non-dimensional relevant parameters on velocity distribution, temperature distribution, microrotation, entropy and Bejan have been computed and presented graphically. Also, numeric values of flow and heat transfer, friction factor have been deliberated and presented through tables.
