Course Overview

Designed exclusively for mechanical and production engineering students, the Materials Science and Engineering online course by Swayam focuses mainly on structural materials. The course covers both the theoretical as well as practical aspects of materials engineering. The syllabus has been divided into three categories, Crystallography, Mechanical properties, and Phase diagrams and heat treatments, each of which will be studied in detail.

IIT Roorkee curates the Materials Science and Engineering certification program. The course will be taught by a top instructor from the institute, Professor Vivek Pancholi. This course is an elective type, undergraduate-level program. The course falls under the category of Mining engineering, Material sciences, and Metallurgy.

The Materials Science and Engineering training will take around eight weeks to complete. Candidates will be taught online via video tutorials and graded assignments for self-assessment. There will also be an optional certification exam at the end of the term for candidates who want to receive the e-certificate.

Eligibility Criteria

Candidates do not have to meet any eligibility criteria for taking admission in the Materials Science and Engineering certification.

Certification Qualifying Details

However, to be eligible for the certificate of achievement from Swayam, learners must score at least 30/75 in the final exam and a minimum of 10/25 in the internal assessments. During the final evaluation, 25% weightage is given to the average internal assessment score and 75% weightage to the course-end exam. The 6-best scored assignments are considered while calculating the average internal assessment score.

What you will learn

Knowledge of engineering

Candidates will become adept in the following once they complete the Materials Science and Engineering syllabus:
