GATE Exam Syllabus for Metallurgical Engineering (MT) GATE  stands for Graduate Aptitude Test for Engineering  is one of the toughest test, an all India Examination that test the comprehensive understanding of various undergraduate subjects in Engineering and Technology. It is jointly conducted by Indian Institute of Science and seven IIT’s on behalf of National Coordination Board-GATE, MHRD,Govt. of India, Department of Higher Education.

Metallurgy is an arena of material science that does detail analysis of physical & chemical behavior of metallic elements & their intermetallic compounds & mixtures called alloys.This engineering is related to refining,extracting and recycling metals.The work of Metallurgical engineers to find answer to problems like reducing corrosion,maintain heat levels and enhance the strength of a product.Metallurgical engineers can become a part of the Industry which produces,sells refines,buys or manufactures metals or metallic compounds.One can be a scientist,professor or a research fellow in various labs & universities located in abroad & India.They can also go for M.tech to avail excellent jobs.

    Am I eligible to write metallurgical engineering gate?

  19. Rachita Mishra says:

    This article is about In production engineering, metallurgy is concerned with the production of metallic components for use in consumer or engineering products

  20. Mrityunjay Kumar Singh says:

    After qualifying GATE, candidates get to explore number of education avenues for bright future. In addition to options waiting such as M.Tech and M.E, GATE qualified candidates also become eligible for the award of junior research fellowship in CSIR Laboratories. Consecutively the candidate needs to enquire about the final selection and award of scholarship/Assistantship from the respective Institution to which the candidate seeks admission.

  21. Seetha Manoharan says:

    nowadays GATE exams is an essential one to get the job or higher studies. this article is a good one to show the detail gate syllabus.
