B.Tech. in Plastic Engineering is a 4- year course which includes the concept of processing, designing, developing, and manufacturing of plastic products and synthetic materials. This course is designed to provide the knowledge related to skilled professionals and the plastics industry. The minimum criterion of eligibility needed to be met for admission to the course is a 10+2 qualification in the science stream. Additionally, candidates are needed to qualify any of the relevant JEE exam/ institute level entrance exam for admission to the course.

What is it About?

The apprentices are provided with a curriculum of the specialised concept of Plastic Engineering with in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge of plastic designing and management concepts. The various areas of concepts which are covered by B. Tech in Plastic Engineering course include the manufacturing, plastic storage science, development of Synthetic Materials, etc.

The course involves eight semesters of main subjects such as Applied Physics, Math, Chemistry, Mechanics, Engineering Drawing, Heat and Mass Transfer, Plastic and Product Mould Design etc. Scholars have the option of choosing their own specialization in the final year. Project work is carried out simultaneously.

Admission Process

The basic procedure for admission to the course for most institutes is similar. Students are needed to appear for the entrance exam, conducted on any of national, State, institute- level. Thereafter, they are required to appear for rounds of personal counseling held in intervals. Based on the cumulative score, qualifying candidates are granted admission in the institute.
