ABOUT THE COURSE.
 
Polymers have been extensively used by the New Age Community. Polymers may be tailored to suit our requirements and have found extensive applications in all walks of life. Polymer Technology has carved a niche in the fields of electronics and electrical materials, textiles, aerospace industry, automobile industry, etc. Polymer Technology is entering to the aerospace's specifications of high strength combined with light weight.

The recent developments of Polymer Technology has revolutionized the field of material science. Due to the advances of development of synthetic Polymers from Natural Polymers they are being used in various fields right from building materials to Packing materials, Fancy decoration articles, Electrical engineering, Communications, Automobile, Aircrafts, etc. Due to their high strength, light weight, good flexibility, special electrical properties, resistance to chemicals, amenability for quick and mass production and for fabrication into complex shapes in a wide variety of colors, polymers can be converted into strong solid articles, flexible rubber like masses. Soft and resilient foams, smooth and fine fibers and clean and clear glass like sheets. They can be used to bond objects, Seal joints, bear loads and in anything from clothing to powering a space vechile. A Polymer can be used for replacing a human organ itself.
 
JOB OPPORTUNITIES
 
Polymer Technologists and Rubber Technologists have placement opportunities in multinational and national companies like Du Pont, Reliance Industries, MRF, Apollo Tyres, Dunlop and a host of other companies with global market reach. The future of Polymer and Rubber industries is bright and job market is highly remunerative for qualified technologists. There is ample scope for higher education leading to Masters and Ph.D. levels in India and Abroad.

Polymer and Rubber Products are one of the main interest of aspiring entrepreneurs who are interested in setting up their own industries for manufacturing plastic articles like telephone instruments, soap dishes, plastic buckets, combs, pvc pipes, computer peripherals, dinner wares and related articles, ballons, softballs, chappals, cycle tyres and tubes, automobile tyres, etc.

The courses provide an extensive knowledge on application of Polymers and Rubber and various ways and means of manufacturing and fabrication of related articles.
