IIT BHU is the oldest institute in India to introduce Metallurgical Engineering. All the top metallurgy departments across India have a connection with IIT BHU. The main focus of the IIT BHU Metallurgical Department is on Alloy Development and Extractive Metallurgy. All the research equipment are well maintained and up to date.

The faculty members always solve the doubts of students regardless of their areas of interest. Many professors here are famous in their respective areas of research and teaching. Their research papers have been published in various journals across the world. Since the department is very old, it has a vast network of alumni. The young researchers can always seek guidance from them. After the conversion of IT BHU to IIT BHU, students get a lot of opportunities to attend conferences, guest lectures, and seminars to stay updated.

If you want to do research in polymers or ceramics, then it is better to join some other department or institute. But if you want to research on Alloy Development and Extractive Metallurgy, then you can go for IIT BHU. The research culture here is quite active and one can get a good research environment and supportive colleagues here.
