About Ceramics and Cement Engineering

Ceramics and Cement Engineering is the science of creating objects from inorganic and non-metallic objects using heat, lowering temperatures etc. Studies relating to purification of raw materials, production of chemical compounds and their formation into components and their structure, composition and properties are part of the programme. BE/B.Tech in Ceramics and Cement Engineering is a four-year program.

The curriculum includes courses like Materials Thermodynamics; Raw Materials Analysis; Ceramic Processing; Drawing of Refractory Lining and Joints; Ceramic Fabrication; Ceramic Equipment Design; Sensor Technology; Electrical and Magnetic Ceramics; and Pollution & Waste Management in Ceramic Industry. One can pursue an M.Tech in Ceramics and Cement Engineering after successful completion of BE/B.Tech.

This course covers the study related to the production and manufacturing of different ceramic and cement products and how they are used in different industries. In the simplest words, a Ceramic engineer focuses on the use of ceramics in the production of various products. They are engaged in the procedure for processing non-metallic inorganic materials into various ceramic products like fibre optics products, glassware, coating for space vehicles, pollution control devices, components of nuclear fuel, etc.

These engineers not only develop the new ceramic products but also devise methods and equipment for processing ceramic materials. They work around the creation of a lot of products like glassware and electronic components to nuclear reactors and linings for blast furnaces and jet engines.

There is a specialised branch of the ceramic engineers called as the dielectrical engineers. They are engaged in making electrical ceramic materials. Their work is related with the production of thermal, nuclear, and electrical current containments for power generation.
