Sri Venkateswara University (SVU) announced a specialised M.Tech in Materials and Minerals Processing, a self-supporting programme, under its Department of Chemical Engineering from the current academic year.

“At a time when critical minerals and advanced materials are emerging as the foundation of future technologies and global economic security, our M.Tech programme, offered in collaboration with Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad (IIT-H), was conceived to prepare engineering graduates for a rapidly changing global industrial landscape in which the ability to extract, process, refine, recover, and add value to mineral resources is becoming as important as the availability of the minerals themselves,” said SVU Vice-Chancellor Prof. Tata Narasinga Rao.
