IIT Madras Launches Online Certificate Program for Practising Engineers; Check Details Here

New Delhi: Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) has launched an online certificate program for Practising Engineers in ‘Additive Manufacturing Technology”. The program will be offered by the institute’s Centre for Outreach and Digital Education (CODE). 

Candidates having a bachelor's degree in engineering or applied sciences or basic sciences with a minimum of three years of working experience can apply for this program. To apply for admission, candidates can submit their registrations online by September 20, 2023.

Associate Professor of Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering of IIT Madras, Dr Murugaiyan Amirthalingam, highlighted the importance of this Additive Manufacturing Technology and said that “This course is aimed at the practising engineers and middle-level managers who have not undergone classroom teaching on additive manufacturing”.

“This course is aimed to provide both fundamentals and applied knowledge of additive manufacturing technologies. Those who want to implement various AM technologies in their workplace can benefit from this course”, Dr Murugaiyan Amirthalingam added.

IIT Madras Additive Manufacturing Technology Program 2023 Overview

Check the key objectives and topics covered by IIT Madras Additive Manufacturing Technology Program 2023 mentioned below:

• Understanding the fundamentals of Additive Manufacturing process, materials and design of pre and post-processing methodologies.
• Provide for the qualification, testing and standardisation methods for AM materials and components.
• Teaching applicants about the generic process chain of AM technologies through hands-on training.
• Analyse the importance of AM technologies in product design and development.
• Help the students to apply AM technologies disruptively in engineering sectors.

Informing about the program, IIT Madras's official statement stated that the program will cover Additive Manufacturing (AM), which is emerging as an effective process for the production of various engineering and biomedical components.

“There is a huge potential for use of AM in various engineering and biomedical applications. It has already emerged as a viable, cost-effective and net-shape manufacturing process for low volume production of complex body implants with specific custom-made designs”, it added.

The program is aimed at providing a comprehensive overview of the pre and post-processing methodologies, operational principles of additive manufacturing processes, and design technologies for additive manufacturing.
