The departments equip the students with the necessary skills in their respective trades of engineering through their rigorous regime of classes and practical exposure, for five days every week. The academic session is divided into two semesters with 100 working days in the odd semesters and 80 working days in the even semesters. Growth and academic caliber of the students is constantly monitored by class tests, quizzes and assignments. To continue the momentum of studies, each semester has two Mid Semester exams whose marks add up and decide the overall performance of a particular student. Moreover, recently, as per the demand of the industry, the focus of teaching has departed from a predominantly bookish methodology, to a more practical approach. Course structures have been revamped in recent years to incorporate the quintessential skills required by the Industry. Moreover, students have been given the luxury to customize their course template to a huge extent, with as many as 7-9 elective courses, which could be courses from any department they like, including MBA courses, so that they have an edge. Added to it are the Human Values courses which aim at improving Emotional Quotient (E.Q.) of the undergraduates. In order to improve the inquisitive appetite of the students, Design & Innovation Hub has been started, which is open to all students. Added to this is the concept of Tinkering Labs, where students can get hands on experience in their area of interest. The Central Instrumentation Facility, which hosts various sophisticated instruments to cater to the needs of cutting edge research in many areas of modern science and technology, is also a new venture of the college, as an effort to continue its pursuit of academic excellence.

Glass and Glass Ceramics
Work is in progress for the development of special coloured glasses, infrared filter glasses suitable for night vision and high density radiation shield glasses. Stains for sheet glasses with copper and silver and heat resistant coating on glasses are being developed. Studies on different micronutrient glasses have been carried out for their suitable application in agriculture for different soil conditions. These micronutrient glasses may be helpful in increasing the yield and quality of major crops like wheat, paddy etc. Valency of redox ions plays an important role in coloration, decolorization, refining and quality of glasses. Spectrometric methods are being developed for determination of different ions in glasses. Glass ceramics also have a number of diverse applications for electronic devices and circuits, which include microelectronic substrate, packaging, multilayer and barrier layer capacitors etc.
Refractories
Sintering and micro-structural studies of refractory oxides like Al2O3, ZrO2, Mgo, Cr2O3 etc. are carried out to attain the maximum sintered densities and desirable microstructure so that optimum refractory properties are obtained in the end product. The work is also in progress to develop sintered grains of single oxide or binary refractory oxides for the development of refractory castables of desirable preparation.
Electrical and Electronic Ceramics
Valence compensated solid solution systems of the type A1-xAx'B1-xB'xO3 show interesting electrical and dielectric properties. Valence compensated perovskites are formed by substituting the cations at A and B site with heterovalent cations in equivalent amounts to maintain electrical charge neutrality and to reduce the electrical strains in the crystal structure. Over the last many years investigation have been carried for synthesis and characterization of Valence compensated alkaline earth titanates and stannates. These materials were prepared by solid state as well as various chemical methods. Extensive solid solutions form over wide range of compositions. Some of the compositions exhibit very high value of dielectric constant. Impedance and modulus analysis of electrical data for these materials show that the high value of dielectric constant is due to the formation of barrier layers at grain-grain boundary interfaces.
Cement and Advanced Building Materials
Portland cement concrete lands itself to a variety of innovative designs as a result of its many desirable properties. Concrete inherently is brittle and weak in tension. Several methods have been developed to impart ductile behavior. Broadly these can be grouped as mechanical and chemical methods. Reinforcing concrete by steel/fibers are mechanical means to impart ductile behavior and incorporation of polymeric materials form the chemical method of developing the ability of the material of exhibit ductile response. Portland cement is a complex mixture of inorganic minerals. The organic additives give a significant influence on the hydration and other properties of cement. Besides having physical effects which modify the bond between the particles and therefore the rheology of cementious mixes, some admixture can act on the chemical process of hydration and particularly on the nucleation and growth of new generation products. Research work is in progress in the Dept. of Ceramic Engineering for producing corrosives resistant impermeable modified cement mortar and concrete of high durability which can give longer life to the structure and pre cast products.
Bio-glass and Ceramics
During the last two decades ceramic materials have become widely used in many medical applications, hip prosthesis, cardiac valves and dental implants. Hydroxyapatite (Hap) seems to be the most appropriate ceramic material for artificial teeth or bones due to excellent biocompatibility and bioactivity. Unfortunately, mechanical properties of pure HAp ceramics are poor. Its medical applications are limited to small-unloaded implants, powders, coatings, and low-loaded porous implants. At Present research is in progress for the synthesis of Magnesium and Strontium Substituted Hydroxyapatite by the Chemical route.

The Department has a status of CAS by the UGC and a DST-FIST assisted department
In the Year 1956, Department of Glass Technology and Department of Ceramic Technology were merged to form the Department of Silicate Technology, offering a four year degree course by injecting into its curriculum balanced engineering and scientific contents. In the year 1968 the Department was renamed as Department of Ceramic Engineering. Presently this department is unique in the country which offers B.Tech., M.Tech. and Ph.D. Programmes in the areas of Ceramic Engineering and Technology. The Department has so far produced more than 1000 graduates, 100 postgraduates and 30 Ph.Ds.
The Department is pursuing active research in the emerging areas of glass, glass ceramics, refractories, electronic ceramic, cement and pottery & porcelain. Research papers are being published in reputed national and international journals regularly. Considering the important role that the department of Ceramic Engineering has played, the University Grants Commission has granted funds under ‘Special Assistance and COSIST’ Programmes. Many R& D projects have been sponsored by AICTE, DST, CSIR and UGC. The Department celebrated its Platinum Jubilee during 1999 for 75 years of Ceramic education and organized a ‘National Seminar on Challenges of 21st Century’.
Glass and Glass Ceramics
Work is in progress for the development of special coloured glasses, infrared filter glasses suitable for night vision and high density radiation shield glasses. Stains for sheet glasses with copper and silver and heat resistant coating on glasses are being developed. Studies on different micronutrient glasses have been carried out for their suitable application in agriculture for different soil conditions. These micronutrient glasses may be helpful in increasing the yield and quality of major crops like wheat, paddy etc. Valency of redox ions plays an important role in coloration, decolorization, refining and quality of glasses. Spectrometric methods are being developed for determination of different ions in glasses. Glass ceramics also have a number of diverse applications for electronic devices and circuits, which include microelectronic substrate, packaging, multilayer and barrier layer capacitors etc.
Refractories
Sintering and micro-structural studies of refractory oxides like Al2O3, ZrO2, Mgo, Cr2O3 etc. are carried out to attain the maximum sintered densities and desirable microstructure so that optimum refractory properties are obtained in the end product. The work is also in progress to develop sintered grains of single oxide or binary refractory oxides for the development of refractory castables of desirable preparation.
Electrical and Electronic Ceramics
Valence compensated solid solution systems of the type A1-xAx'B1-xB'xO3 show interesting electrical and dielectric properties. Valence compensated perovskites are formed by substituting the cations at A and B site with heterovalent cations in equivalent amounts to maintain electrical charge neutrality and to reduce the electrical strains in the crystal structure. Over the last many years investigation have been carried for synthesis and characterization of Valence compensated alkaline earth titanates and stannates. These materials were prepared by solid state as well as various chemical methods. Extensive solid solutions form over wide range of compositions. Some of the compositions exhibit very high value of dielectric constant. Impedance and modulus analysis of electrical data for these materials show that the high value of dielectric constant is due to the formation of barrier layers at grain-grain boundary interfaces.
Cement and Advanced Building Materials
Portland cement concrete lands itself to a variety of innovative designs as a result of its many desirable properties. Concrete inherently is brittle and weak in tension. Several methods have been developed to impart ductile behavior. Broadly these can be grouped as mechanical and chemical methods. Reinforcing concrete by steel/fibers are mechanical means to impart ductile behavior and incorporation of polymeric materials form the chemical method of developing the ability of the material of exhibit ductile response. Portland cement is a complex mixture of inorganic minerals. The organic additives give a significant influence on the hydration and other properties of cement. Besides having physical effects which modify the bond between the particles and therefore the rheology of cementious mixes, some admixture can act on the chemical process of hydration and particularly on the nucleation and growth of new generation products. Research work is in progress in the Dept. of Ceramic Engineering for producing corrosives resistant impermeable modified cement mortar and concrete of high durability which can give longer life to the structure and pre cast products.
Bio-glass and Ceramics
During the last two decades ceramic materials have become widely used in many medical applications, hip prosthesis, cardiac valves and dental implants. Hydroxyapatite (Hap) seems to be the most appropriate ceramic material for artificial teeth or bones due to excellent biocompatibility and bioactivity. Unfortunately, mechanical properties of pure HAp ceramics are poor. Its medical applications are limited to small-unloaded implants, powders, coatings, and low-loaded porous implants. At Present research is in progress for the synthesis of Magnesium and Strontium Substituted Hydroxyapatite by the Chemical route.
Department of Electronics Engineering came into existence as an offshoot of Electrical Engineering Department in the year 1971 (when Banaras Engineering College, College of Mining and Metallurgy and College of Technology had been amalgamated to form the Institute of Technology in its present form). Besides teaching students of our own discipline (Electronics Engineering), we also offer the basic courses in Electronics Engineering to almost all the Departments of the Institute, we also teach advanced-level courses to the students of Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering Departments. We have a training and placement section in the Institute through which most of our students are professionally placed in various jobs.
Our current priority areas of specialization are
(i) Communication Systems Engineering
(ii) Digital Techniques & Instrumentation
(iii) Microwave Engineering
(iv) Microelectronics.
We are accordingly, running a doctoral programme under which about 45-50 research scholars would obtain their Ph.D. degree, every year, in these thrust areas. A mention may be made about the external Ph.D. Registration Scheme of the Institute under which at a time there would be on an average 4-5 Scientists of National Laboratories registered for their Ph.D. degree.

Glass and Glass Ceramics
Work is in progress for the development of special coloured glasses, infrared filter glasses suitable for night vision and high density radiation shield glasses. Stains for sheet glasses with copper and silver and heat resistant coating on glasses are being developed. Studies on different micronutrient glasses have been carried out for their suitable application in agriculture for different soil conditions. These micronutrient glasses may be helpful in increasing the yield and quality of major crops like wheat, paddy etc. Valency of redox ions plays an important role in coloration, decolorization, refining and quality of glasses. Spectrometric methods are being developed for determination of different ions in glasses. Glass ceramics also have a number of diverse applications for electronic devices and circuits, which include microelectronic substrate, packaging, multilayer and barrier layer capacitors etc.
Refractories
Sintering and micro-structural studies of refractory oxides like Al2O3, ZrO2, Mgo, Cr2O3 etc. are carried out to attain the maximum sintered densities and desirable microstructure so that optimum refractory properties are obtained in the end product. The work is also in progress to develop sintered grains of single oxide or binary refractory oxides for the development of refractory castables of desirable preparation.
Electrical and Electronic Ceramics
Valence compensated solid solution systems of the type A1-xAx'B1-xB'xO3 show interesting electrical and dielectric properties. Valence compensated perovskites are formed by substituting the cations at A and B site with heterovalent cations in equivalent amounts to maintain electrical charge neutrality and to reduce the electrical strains in the crystal structure. Over the last many years investigation have been carried for synthesis and characterization of Valence compensated alkaline earth titanates and stannates. These materials were prepared by solid state as well as various chemical methods. Extensive solid solutions form over wide range of compositions. Some of the compositions exhibit very high value of dielectric constant. Impedance and modulus analysis of electrical data for these materials show that the high value of dielectric constant is due to the formation of barrier layers at grain-grain boundary interfaces.
Cement and Advanced Building Materials
Portland cement concrete lands itself to a variety of innovative designs as a result of its many desirable properties. Concrete inherently is brittle and weak in tension. Several methods have been developed to impart ductile behavior. Broadly these can be grouped as mechanical and chemical methods. Reinforcing concrete by steel/fibers are mechanical means to impart ductile behavior and incorporation of polymeric materials form the chemical method of developing the ability of the material of exhibit ductile response. Portland cement is a complex mixture of inorganic minerals. The organic additives give a significant influence on the hydration and other properties of cement. Besides having physical effects which modify the bond between the particles and therefore the rheology of cementious mixes, some admixture can act on the chemical process of hydration and particularly on the nucleation and growth of new generation products. Research work is in progress in the Dept. of Ceramic Engineering for producing corrosives resistant impermeable modified cement mortar and concrete of high durability which can give longer life to the structure and pre cast products.
Bio-glass and Ceramics
During the last two decades ceramic materials have become widely used in many medical applications, hip prosthesis, cardiac valves and dental implants. Hydroxyapatite (Hap) seems to be the most appropriate ceramic material for artificial teeth or bones due to excellent biocompatibility and bioactivity. Unfortunately, mechanical properties of pure HAp ceramics are poor. Its medical applications are limited to small-unloaded implants, powders, coatings, and low-loaded porous implants. At Present research is in progress for the synthesis of Magnesium and Strontium Substituted Hydroxyapatite by the Chemical route.
