Introduction

Materials Engineering, being one of the most important branches of engineering, brings various disciplines of engineering and science together to fulfill present-day technological requirements. In view of the ever-increasing demand for highly qualified manpower in Materials Engineering, the Bahauddin Zakariya University has established

Institute of Advanced Materials to offer quality education and training in this vital area of Engineering.

The institute has been established in a purpose-built civil structure which houses lecture rooms, a modern library facility with access to various institutes and research organizations through an internet facility. The hallmark of the institute is its laboratories, which distinguish it from other institutes. The laboratories have been equipped with the most modern and state-of-the-art training and research equipment, such as Scanning Electron Microscope, X-ray diffractometer, Thermal analyzer, furnaces for various purposes, and various instruments for testing of engineering materials, along with facilities for determining physical and electrical properties of materials. The Labs have been established to prepare its graduates to provide services in sectors such as aerospace, metals and alloys, electrical and electronics, engineering ceramics, and industries of strategic importance.

The Institute is offering a 4-year degree program leading to B.Sc. Metallurgy and Materials Engineering. The curriculum of this program is so designed as to educate its graduates with various theoretical concepts in Materials Engineering and Technology, along with scientific principles governing designing, processing, and applications of materials with a view to meet the needs of student-employer constituencies. The Institute places a high degree of emphasis on practical training in relation to theoretical concepts and scientific principles, which its well-equipped laboratories demonstrate. The students would find the labs extremely useful in carrying out their research projects as part of their degree program. 

Institute Vision        Shared struggle-Bright future

Institute Mission      Our mission is to improve and propagate the understanding about properties and processing of engineering materials through teaching and research.The institute will be a nationally and internationally recognized nodal centre for fostering interdisciplinary teaching and research in the field of metallurgical and materials engineering at the undergraduate and graduate level.
