Master of Technology [M.Tech] (Manufacturing Engineering) Syllabus, Course Structure and Program Schedule 2025-2026

Course Structure

M.tech Manufacturing Engineering is a two year course, generally divided in 4 semesters. Apart from the main papers, electives, core courses, lab courses, viva, seminar and dissertation are also counted.

The course delivery methods in the program include classroom lectures, discussions, presentations and industry visits.

Scheme of Assessment

In M.tech Manufacturing engineering students are assessed by a combination of theory, practical, lab practicals, viva-voice, seminar, and dissertations.

In addition, students are also assessed on certain parameters such as attendance, presentation, assignment and class participation and are given points.

An overview for the syllabus is given below:
