DUGC stands for Departmental Under Graduate Committee. It’s an office level board of trustees, involving employees and an understudy agent, which prompts UG understudies on scholarly related matters. It likewise goes about as interface between Institute body, SUGC and the office.

The Department of Materials Science and Engineering, prior Materials and Metallurgical Engineering at IIT Kanpur was set up in 1960. The division has set extremely solid accentuation on instructing and sustaining youthful personalities for the better of the general public and the country on the loose

The office has likewise had solid effect in fundamental and connected research by chipping away at wilderness zones of Materials Science and Metallurgy. Its workforce and understudies have likewise made colossal commitments to the business, especially in the ranges of ferrous and nonferrous metallurgy, mineral designing, powder metallurgy.

The division intermittently surveys its educational modules to stay side by side with the contemporary prerequisites. The graduated class of the office have gone ahead to be a piece of different prominent national and global associations in different strolls of life and have made the division glad.

A B-Tech understudy in MSE examines with all understudies from different branches together for the vast majority of the courses in the first and second years of his/her program. More prominent accentuation to the departmental preparing follows in the following two years. The departmental preparing system is portrayed underneath.

B. Tech Program in MSE

From 2011, the division has changed its educational modules guided by taking after rationality; it is a one of a kind program offered just by IIT Kanpur.

1. Materials and Metallurgy preparing is a cognizant and coordinated action, which can't be softened up two separate parts. (Thus we have begun calling ourselves the Department of Materials Science and Engineering which envelops investigation of both, metallurgy and non-metals, their properties and science and building.

2. Each understudy of Materials Science and Engineering ought to procure solid basics in a wide range of materials, their properties and handling. We offer these through a short however complete rundown of obligatory center courses.

3. With this foundation, emphatically sponsored by science, now an understudy is relied upon to have a superior information of his/her innovative inclining and ranges of intrigue. To bolster the understudy's probable slants, the office offers countless in an assortment of zone. The division guarantees that these courses are accessible to the understudy each year. They are offered in three containers, in particular cynical
