B. Tech (Metallurgical and Materials Engineering)

Overview

The B.Tech in Metallurgical Engineering is a four-year undergraduate program that focuses on the study of the physical and chemical behavior of metallic elements, their inter-metallic compounds, and their mixtures (alloys). The program is designed to equip students with a strong foundation in materials science and metallurgical engineering principles, with a specific focus on metals and their applications in various industries.

 This field bridges science and engineering to innovate materials that shape the world. From building lighter and stronger vehicles to developing corrosion-resistant pipelines and sustainable manufacturing practices, metallurgical engineers play a vital role in technological advancement.

Eligibility
