Course Overview

The quality of steel plays an enormous role in imparting specific characteristics of a product. The absence of any defects and cleanliness are the two significant facets of steel quality. Therefore, the Steel Quality certification course is developed to help you understand the importance of casting processes in the cleanliness and surface quality of steel. You will realize this by using two techniques as examples – Secondary refining and continuous casting.

The Steel Quality program is provided by Swayam in collaboration with IIT Madras. This course, spanning over 12 weeks, tackles many topics pertaining to steel quality, quality issues, how to control quality issues, and steel manufacturing. AICTE has approved the course as an FDP (Faculty Development Program) course.

A digital certificate is also awarded if you manage to clear the exam and submit all the assignments satisfactorily.
