been awarded the "Best Industry linked National Institute of Technology in India"

by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) in the year 2015.

Established in the year 1967, the Department of Metallurgical and Materials

Engineering has been one of the premier centers of excellence in the field of

Metallurgical and Materials Engineering. It offers outstanding technical education

in B.Tech. (Metallurgical and Materials Engineering), three M.Tech. programs in

Materials Science & Engineering, Welding Engineering and Industrial Metallurgy,

MS (by research) and Ph.D Programmes. The department is equipped with state-

of-the-art laboratories and tools to foster research and practical expertise in areas

related to metallurgical and materials engineering. Eminent faculty members of

this department have made tremendous contributions in imparting knowledge to

the young minds for the betterment of society and nation. Current research

activities of the department comprise both in traditional metallurgy related areas

such as physical, mechanical and extractive metallurgy, but also in modern areas

such as biomaterials ceramics, polymers, thermoelectric materials, and various

other smart and functional materials.

The historical city of Tiruchirappalli in Tamil Nadu, India is also known as Tiruchi or

Trichy, situated on the banks of the river Cauvery and is the fourth largest city in

Tamil Nadu. Trichy is famous for its rich cultural and wonderful architectural
