Overview

Master of Technology in Chemical Engineering is a postgraduate Chemical Engineering course. It is two years program and further separated into two semesters each. The main emphasis in the initial two semesters is on coursework which involves both center or mandatory courses and electives. The research project constitutes a major part of the work in the second year. The understudy under the supervision of afaculty member carries out state of the art research in the frontier areas of chemical engineering, for example, computational fluid dynamics, materials science, biochemical engineering, environmental engineering, process control, reaction engineering, transport phenomena, particle technology, semiconductor processing, and so forth. The research includes taking care of issues of industrial relevance as well as of fundamental significance. The M.Tech. (Chemical Engineering) programs in India are usually organized as an Engineering Research degree, lesser than Ph.D. what's more, thought to be parallel to M.Phil. what's more, M.S. degrees in Humanities and Science separately. Along these lines, M.Tech. (hemical Engineering) degree is an research-based degree where the understudy does the research work like Ph.D. work.

Courses & Eligibility

The eligibility for pursuing M.Tech in Chemical Engineering are as follows:

• Most institutes state minimal eligibility to be an undergraduate B.Tech degree in Chemical Engineering. - The Indian Institutes of technology have the introduced eligibility criteria of a valid GATE score, that is only relaxed for the ones who've received their B.Tech from an IIT with a CGPA of more than 8.0/10 as nicely.
  
• Note- A few institutes permit the equivalent types of B.Tech in Chemical Engineering, including a B.E. in the same field.
• M.Tech. in Chemical Engineering from an IIT will cost about INR 50K to 1.5 lakh.

Course Curriculum

The course is 2 year programme, generally following the semester system, i.e. a complete of 4 semesters. This includes certain time periods set apart for assignment work and research work.

Career Prospect

After M.Tech. in chemical engineering, you could get job position as:

• Sales Engineer or Chemical Engineer
• Chemical/ Petrochemical Engineer
• Process Engineer
• Trainee Engineer
• Technical Sales Engineer
• Chemical Design Engineer
• Technical Service Engineer
• Lecturer/Professor

Since in M.Tech. you'll be opting for a particular specialization, ensure that specialization is either of your interest or is marketable enough to attract employment. teaching after M.Tech. requires good CGPA and communication skills loaded with confidence.

Pay & Remuneration

A fresher holding a M.Tech Chemical Engineering degree can expect an average starting salary is approximately Rs. 50,000 Rupees per month. Paying amount depends on your overall performance and any additional talents you obtain. 

A Chemical Engineer with 4 to 7 years experience will get more  salary then a fresher get. The more experience you have the more pay you will get.

Famous Personalities

There are many Persons who have made a mark in the field of Chemical Engineering. Some of the Famous Personalities are as follows:
