Academics
B.Tech.
The B.Tech. program in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering is a 4-year (8-semester) undergraduate program.
The coursework during the first two semesters is common to all branches of engineering, providing a strong foundation in basic sciences and engineering fundamentals.
From the third semester onwards, students are introduced to core courses in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering. Elective courses, offered from the fifth semester onwards, allow students to specialize in their areas of interest within the broad discipline.
During the final semester, students undertake a major project, enabling them to apply the theoretical and practical knowledge gained throughout the program.
B.Tech Scheme and Syllabus (AY: 2024-25)Dual Degree (Bachelor + Master of Technology)
The Dual Degree (Bachelor and Master of Technology) program in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering is a 5-year (10-semester) integrated program. During the first three years, students complete common courses alongside regular B.Tech. students, gaining a strong foundation in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering.
In the final two years, students undertake advanced coursework jointly with M.Tech. students in Welding Technology and Non-Destructive Testing (WTNDT). The program ensures that graduates acquire a comprehensive understanding of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering along with in-depth technical knowledge and research exposure in Welding Technology and Non-Destructive Testing.
Dual Degree (Bachelor and Master of Technology) Scheme and Syllabus (AY: 2024-25)M.Tech Welding Technology and Non-Destructive Testing
The M.Tech. program in Welding Technology and Non-Destructive Testing (WTNDT) was introduced in 2024 with an intake of 20 students. This postgraduate program provides comprehensive and advanced knowledge in the areas of welding processes, materials behavior, and inspection technologies.
The curriculum covers a wide range of topics including:
- Welding Processes and Welding Metallurgy (Ferrous and Non-Ferrous)
- Basic and Advanced Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Techniques
- Design of Weldments
- Joining of Ceramics, Polymers, and Composites
- Mechanical Behavior and Corrosion of Weldments
- Fatigue and Fracture Mechanics
- Residual Stresses and Distortion
- Statistics, Quality, and Reliability
- Computational Methods for Welding and Joining
- Signal and Image Processing

- Surface Engineering and Coating Technologies
- Metallurgy of Steels
Integrated M.Tech Welding Technology and Non-Destructive Testing
Integrated M.Tech Welding Technology and Non-Destructive Testing program is of 5 years duration (10 semesters). For the first 3 years the students will do common courses along with regular B.Tech students. Then the integrated program students will do course work with the M.Tech students in Welding Technology and Non-Destructive Testing. The students are thoroughly conversant with Metallurgical and Materials Engineering and in-depth knowledge and research exposure in Welding Technology and Non-Destructive Testing.
