Course Overview

The Mechanical Behavior of Materials (Part-1) Certification course is an 8-week online program. The course syllabus is prepared and authorised by the IIT Kanpur, even if Swayam is hired to deliver the course. The Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, and NPTEL are the organisations that grant this course certificate.

Mechanical Behavior of Materials (Part-1) training is a part of the Metallurgy and Material Science & Mining Engineering core curriculum. Shashank Shekhar and Sudhanshu Shekhar Singh are the instructors of this certification course. 

This course aims to provide students with a fundamental understanding of materials' ability to withstand a variety of external pressures, such as stresses, environmental factors, and time, and the most important mechanical properties of materials, like tensile strength and yield strength, and their determination through testing methods.
