at Jharkhand University of Technology, Ranchi

The important subjects might vary slightly depending on the university as every university follow a certain set of guidelines when it comes to their coursework, but common topics covered in the course usually remain almost the same that include:
• Advanced Algorithms and Data Structures
• Software Engineering Principles
• AI and ML
• Computer Networks and Distributed Systems
• Database Management Systems
• Computer Architecture and Organization
You also get to choose from a variety of elective subjects in the second year as per your interests and career goals.

The BTech Metallurgical Engineering syllabus includes both core and elective subjects. The core subjects are a compulsory part of every semester because they give you the foundational knowledge about the field of Metallurgical Engg. The subjects can vary from college to college but some of the general core subjects include:

• Mechanical Behavior of Materials
• Iron and Steel Making
• Phase Transformation and Heat Treatment
• Metal Processing
• Characterization Techniques for Materials
• Corrosion Engineering
• Ceramics and Metal Powder Processing
• Metallurgical Thermodynamics and Kinetics

There is a plethora of interesting elective subject choices for you in the Metallurgical Engineering syllabus for the BTech course. For choosing the best subjects for yourself, you should see if the subject aligns with your career goals, is intriguing and fun to study, the skills that you can gain from the subject, and the current market value.

Once you're clear with these few points, you can go ahead and select the best one for you. Some popular student choices when it comes to the elective Metallurgical Engg. subjects are given here:

• Mineral Processing
• Thin Film Technology
• Engineering Ceramics
• High Temperature Materials
• Composite Materials
• Nanotechnology: Materials & Devices
• Corrosion Protection Methods
