The Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (formerly Department of Metallurgical Engg.) admitted the first batch of B.E. students in 1967. And Since its inception this department has been one of the premier centers of excellence in the field of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering. It has expanded since then in many ways and now offers three Post-Graduate programmes with specialisation in Welding Engineering, Materials Science & Engineering and Industrial Metallurgy. All three courses have been attracting candidates with varied engineering backgrounds, and also sponsored candidates from engineering industries and academia.
- M.Tech. Programs: Our M.Tech. programs are designed to provide students with in-depth knowledge and skills in specialized areas of metallurgical and materials engineering.
- M.S. and Ph.D. Programs: We also offer M.S. and Ph.D. programs for students who want to pursue advanced research in materials science and engineering.
We're proud of our excellent placement record! In the 2024-25 academic year, we achieved a 100% placement rate for all three branches of the M.Tech program. Our strong industry connections and rigorous training programs ensure that our students are well-prepared for the workforce.
The department faculty are actively involved in research projects sponsored by prominent agencies like MHRD, DRDO, AICTE, DST, NRB, and Tata Steel. Our research focus areas include materials development, welding engineering, and industrial metallurgy.
The UG programme is accredited for 6 years by the National Board of Accreditation and is a recognised centre for QIP (Quality Improvement Programme) for both M.Tech. and Ph.D. programs.
If you're passionate about materials science and engineering, we invite you to join our M.Tech programs at NIT Trichy. Admissions are now open, and we're looking for talented students who want to pursue a career in this exciting field. Don't miss this opportunity to be part of a legacy of excellence in metallurgical and materials engineering. Apply now and take the first step towards a rewarding career!
To evolve into a globally recognized department in the frontier areas of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering.
