What You Will Learn?

Students completing this course will be equipped with knowledge of the material world. The intricacies of crystallography and crystal structures will be taught thoroughly. They will learn about different types of crystal defects, such as point, line, and surface defects, and how these affect material behavior. Some of the topics that this course will include are as follows:

Introduction and Basic Crystallography

Crystal Systems, Bravais Lattices, and Miller Indices, Interstices

Structure of Metals and Alloys

Structure of Ceramics

Structure of Polymers

Structure Determination: X-ray diffraction

Defects in Materials

Who Should Go For It?

This course is designed for the students of science who have an idea about the Metallurgy. Since this course contains information that students of science and engineering can relate to, students should have their 12th degree in science. Thus the intended audience for this course are as follows:

UG students of science and engineering non-material related background

PG students of science and engineering non-material related background

Students of Nanotechnology can opt for this

Other students of Metallurgy Engineering can be best suited to this course.
