Maharashtra Institute of Technology (MIT), PUNE - INDIA

Department of POLYMER ENGINEERING

Polymeric materials such as plastics, rubbers, fibers, paints, adhesives, etc. are gradually replacing conventional materials like paper, wood, glass, metals, cement, etc. Several house hold articles, components used in automobiles, electronics, building construction and other industries are now fabricated from polymeric materials. This change has brought about a phenomenal growth of the polymer industry during the last few decades involving the developments on materials technology, processing technology, machinery, and applications research and product design. This has led to a relatively new and specialized field of technical studies known as “Polymer Engineering”.

Rubber is a natural product, which is, produced by various techniques to make it useable by various industries for production of different end products. The most essential end product is tyre right from high tech aircraft tyre and formula 1 can racing to tyre for bicycles. Rubber is processed and then moulded into the required shape. Treated or processed rubber is also used various other and products like those used in various industries, car decoration, etc.


Eligibility :
10+ 2 in science stream

Job Prospects:

The tyre industry holds out a good number of opportunities for the rubber technologists. Internationally well known companies like Apollo tyres, MRF, Ceat, JK industries employ many rubber technologists. Besides the tyre industry, jobs are also available with various rubber-processing units.

Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Coimbatore

Polymers are making inroads into every aspect of life—automobiles, building, packaging, domestic appliances, medicine, agriculture, aerospace, information technology, marine, sports, etc. For instance, the consumption of plastics which was 2.2 MT in 1997 is expected to increase to 7.7 MT in 2008. Polymers have moved from the ‘commodity’ material category to ‘engineering’ materials and are candidates for ‘specialty’ materials. The increasing consumption of polymer materials, their unique and multifaceted characteristics and the versatile application range of these materials have created the need for specially trained personnel.

Polymer Engineering Department was conceived and formed in 1999 to cater to the increasing demands of the polymer industry [plastics and rubbers, in particular] for suitably trained manpower. The Department is manned by experienced, energetic and young faculty and has excellent laboratory facilities in the areas of polymer processing and characterization.

Courses

Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.)
Admission :: Syllabus

What is special about the Polymer Engineering course at AIT ?
The curriculum is sharply focussed to meet the needs of modern polymer industry in India, which is undergoing a revolution. It helps students to acquire the cutting edge of technology to face competition and to kindle innovation. It helps students interested in R&D work, (both in industry and in institutions) to take advantage of the enormous opportunities for creative work in the fascinating field of plastics like Designer Polymers and Molecular Architecture.Designer polymers are a class of polymers that are designed to perform specialized functions by tinkering with their structure at the molecular level. This molecular level tinkering of polymer structure to elicit a specific function is referred to as tailoring or designing of polymers.
