Background

India has a large pool of young talent that has fuelled its steady economic growth. The talent pool requires to be nurtured and augmented with new skills. The Government of India has also emphasized the need of imparting requisite skills under the flagship programme of ‘Skill India’. The field of materials and metallurgical engineering is projected to be of enormous importance for the progress and growth of the country. Young practitioners of this field, therefore, require to be imparted with better skill sets. In order to fulfil this objective, several leading institutions of the country, namely the Jamshedpur Chapter of the IIM, Tata Steel Limited and CSIR-National Metallurgical Laboratory (CSIR-NML), NIT Jamshedpur and AcSIR have been working together to nurture and mentor young metallurgists and inspire them to flourish into dedicated professionals. This annual Students' Seminar has been initiated to provide a common platform for promising and aspiring metallurgists to interact with the pool of experts from industries, R&D labs and academic institutes. The student participants of this event will get an opportunity to update their current knowledge base and share their academic achievements, innovative thoughts and new ideas in the area of metallurgy and materials technology.

About the Seminar

Since its inception in 2011, the seminar "Behind the Teacher's Desk (BTTD)“ has blossomed into one of the most sought-after events among the student fraternity of India. BTTD has been held annually at the CSIR-NML Jamshedpur and attracts more than 200 students from across the country. The event provides a launch pad for the students for showcasing themselves and interacting with scientists, eminent metallurgists, engineers and entrepreneurs to develop new skills in the field of metallurgy and materials technology.
