B.Tech Metallurgical Engineering or Bachelor of Technology in Metallurgical Engineering is an Under-Graduate Metallurgical Engineering course. Metallurgical Engineering is a broad area that deals with all sorts of metal-related areas. The main three branches of this major are physical metallurgy, extractive metallurgy, and mineral processing.

Physical metallurgy deals with problem-solving: you’ll develop the sorts of metallic alloys needed for different types of manufacturing and construction. Extractive metallurgy involves extracting metal from ore. Mineral processing involves gathering mineral products from the earth’s crust. The duration of the Bachelor of Technology course in Metallurgical Engineering is four years and it is being offered by most institutes throughout the country. After completing the graduate Metallurgical Engineering course candidates find many career scopes in various fields.

B.Tech Metallurgical Engineering Eligibility

  • Aspiring candidates must have passed their 10+2 examination in the Science stream with subjects such as Biology, Maths, and Chemistry from a recognized Board.
  • For IITs, it is mandatory to qualify for the Joint Entrance Examinations (J.E.E).
