    Departmental Newsletter - METALetter - third issue

    The Department of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering is pleased to present the third issue of our bi-annual newsletter, highlighting the activities and achievements of the Department of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering at IIEST Shibpur from March to September 2025.

    This term witnessed several significant events. The Annual General Meeting of the Indian Institute of Metals (IIM), organized by the A.K. Seal Memorial Lecture Committee on 26th July at the Biswa Bangla Convention Centre, Kolkata, was graced by Prof. B. S. Murty, Director of IIT Hyderabad and Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize awardee. The department also co-hosted the Industry–Academia Meet with the IIM Howrah Chapter on 10th July at IIEST Shibpur, fostering closer ties between research and industry. Furthermore, the 29th International Conference on Non-Ferrous Metals (ICNFM 2025), held on 11th–12th July at Hotel Taj Bengal, Kolkata, brought together global experts to deliberate on advancements and challenges in the non-ferrous sector. Adding to this, the Eastern Regional Laboratory, Bureau of Indian Standards, in collaboration with IIEST Shibpur, organized a two-day Workshop on Metallography Testing on 17th–18th July, offering participants hands-on exposure to advanced facilities including SEM, XRD, EDM, and Heat Treatment labs.

    Our students and researchers have also made the department proud. Mr. Kabir Baidya, PhD scholar under Dr. Kaushik Das, delivered both oral and poster presentations at the European Coatings Show and Conference 2025, Nuremberg, Germany. At ICNFM 2025, Ms. Samjukta Sinha secured the First Prize for her poster presentation, adding another feather to our cap. Alongside these, our students have excelled in research, cultural, and sporting arenas, strengthening the department’s presence on national and international platforms.

    We remain committed to excellence in teaching, research, and industry collaboration, while nurturing the holistic development of our students. I extend my heartfelt appreciation to all faculty, students, alumni, and collaborators for their dedicated contributions to the department’s progress.
