The Indian
textile industry is in rapid progress and is offering huge revenue to the
country. It has increased the need for engineering graduates who have the
skills in engineering, design, chemistry, management, computers, apparel,
marketing/sales, and quality control.
Textile
Engineering uses the principles of engineering with specific knowledge of
textile equipment and processes. The course curriculum also draws knowledge
from other engineering disciplines including mechanical, electrical and industrial
and chemical engineering.
Textile industry
basically involves manufacturing of various types of fabrics both natural and
synthetic as well as of production machinery and application of new technology.
The industry has categorized in three major areas of work namely research and
development, manufacturing and merchandising.
Eligibility
For doing B.Tech
in Textile Engineering one should have completed 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry,
Maths and/or Biology. Most engineering colleges in the country select
candidates based on written entrance examinations.
After completing
B.Tech/BE in textile engineering, one can either start a professional career or
can continue his/her study by joining M.Tech and PhD programs offered by the
Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).
Career Prospects
The Career paths
in textile engineering include process engineering, research and development,
production control, technical sales, quality control and corporate management
through the production supervisory route.
Apart from
joining textile farms and manufacturing units after B.E./B.Tech one can also
join M.Tech course or can go for doctorate degrees. For doing research in
India, one has to qualify the NET/JRF entrance examination conducted by UGC and
CSIR jointly. Also there are good opportunities abroad for carrying out
research work.
