UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAM The Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering is concerned with the generation and application of knowledge on engineering materials. It comprises such aspects as the extraction and refining processes, synthesis and processing of materials, factors affecting the internal structure of solids, methods of altering the structure and properties of materials and factors affecting the materials behavior in service. The undergraduate curriculum comprises a core program that emphasizes principles basic to all these classes of materials. It builds upon courses on physics, chemistry and certain aspects of solid mechanics with a series of courses on internal structure of solids covering both chemical and physical aspects and structure-property relations. From the fifth semester on, the core curriculum addresses to career opportunities in metallurgical and materials engineering. These include the metal industries, ceramic industries and other small scale industries that normally deal with a variety of materials. In addition to its solid core program department offers various technical elective courses on various aspects such as nanomaterials, energy, biomaterials, extractive metallurgy, electrical, magnetic and optical properties of materials. Students take capstone design project in their senior year, by pursuing a real world engineering application. GRADUATE PROGRAM Graduate programs in METE are designed to present the students with systematic development of the fundamental scientific and engineering principles underlying materials phenomena and process operations. The department offers 3 types of graduate programs • M.S. • Ph.D. • Integrated Ph.D. Program Course Requirements: M.S. students are required to take minimum of 7 courses apart from a Master's thesis. Program involves 3 compulsory courses, seminar and the remaining courses are restricted electives which are taken by the student in close cooperation with their advisors. For the Ph.D. Degree, an additional 7 courses and a Ph.D. thesis should be successfully completed. In integrated Ph.D program, the students are required to take a minimum of 14 courses in addition to Ph.D. thesis.
