M Tech Metallurgical & Materials Engineering or Master of Technology in Metallurgical & Materials Engineering is a postgraduate Metallurgical Engineering course. Metallurgical Engineering is concerned with the development, production, and processing of ferrous, non-ferrous, and mineral materials. It is the basis for innovative products and new technological developments in the fields of industry, technology, and medicine. The course focuses on materials design, including general research to ascertain the structure of materials and to investigate opportunities for optimizing known materials (e.g. steel, aluminum, magnesium, glass, ceramic, etc.).
The program structure aims to strengthen the understanding of the students in the core areas of metallurgical and materials engineering in order to meet the needs of the Indian industry as well as R&D organizations.The duration of M Tech Process Metallurgy is two years, which is spread over four semesters. Each semester is usually six months long. The first year of the course provides a definite theoretical knowledge and practical experience whereas the last year mainly focuses on dissertation and project submission.
