An academic research career, or the wish to develop an advancement in the field of Technology that will transform the
future, requires an in-depth knowledge of the various concepts of engineering. The postgraduate programmes are
specialized programs that are an amalgam of the fundamentals of science and the intricate knowledge of engineering
applications. The M. Tech programmes at the institute are aimed at developing quality engineering manpower which can
provide to the various industries and research and development institutes of the country and abroad and also produce
engineers who are tuned to the immediate needs of the society. The various engineering schools at the institute offer a
multidisciplinary approach which can enable the students to develop their problem solving skills. The M. Tech in Applied
Geosciences, Climate Science & Technology, Civil Engineering, Electronics & Communication Engineering, Materials
Science and Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Water Resources Engineering to name a few, include a rigorous study
of the core subjects, along with seminars and project/thesis through which a student may develop his/her conceptual
knowledge.

The proposed “Advanced Maintenance Technology” programme is offered for engineers who have been working / or have worked in industry/plant for 3 years or more and are thus aware of the maintenance procedures being followed in plant and are looking to extend their knowledge and update their qualifications with a view to career advancement. Engineers from industries, including the steel, automotive, pharmaceutical, nuclear, petrochemical and aerospace industries, may participate in this program. It does not require GATE qualification but selections will be made through a procedure of evaluation of applicants. This proposed programme will help build the fundamental knowledge base needed for predictive and preventive maintenance of both normal and complex, and critical systems and structures. The technical management aspects of maintenance technology will be covered so as to prepare the student for a range of roles associated with maintenance in plants, including critical areas.

The minimum time required to complete the program is two years. However, it can also be completed at relaxed pace within five years. The admissions will be made open once a year (i.e. Autumn Semester).
