METALLOGRAPHY & MATERIAL TESTING LABORATORY
The programme B. Tech. in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering is a four-year bachelor’s degree in technology, offered by Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at Amal Jyothi College of Engineering, Kanjirappally, Kottayam, with an emphasis on materials for developing industrial sectors such as energy, environment, production, etc.
The programme is truly interdisciplinary and combines knowledge from chemistry, physics, and mathematics merged with the principles of mechanical and chemical engineering.
The curriculum is designed to make the students capable of taking up the present and upcoming challenges in the field of materials science and engineering. In addition to the robust technical foundation, the curriculum also ensures the overall development of students, especially in communication, project management, and time management, organizational, and computing skills.
- The survey works include
- Building Setting Out
- Generation of Contour Map for an Area
- Topographical Survey
- Digital Asset Mapping
- Small, Medium and Large area total station survey
