Mechanical and Production Engineering

On 17^th June, 2023, 34 students of 4^th year 2^nd semester of ME Program of MPE Department along with five faculty members visited the rolling unit of Bangladesh Steel Re-Rolling Mills Ltd. (BSRM) at Faujdarhat industrial estate.

BSRM is the leading steel manufacturing company and one of the prominent corporate houses in Bangladesh. Over the years, BSRM steel products have been chosen solely for building major National landmarks and infrastructures. To name a few, the Padma Bridge, Ruppur Neuclear Power Plant, Hatirjheel Project, Zillur Rahman Flyover, Mayor Hanif Flyover and Shah Amanat Bridge were built with BSRM.

BSRM Xtreme is a product that was introduced when there was no graded steel in Bangladesh. It was a major change in the steel industry of Bangladesh. The core driver was the belief in evolution in steel products, which resulted in bringing the first EMF tested rod, the first steel brand that passed 5 million cyclic loading Fatigue testing in the U.K. and conformed to 10 global standards. With the largest steel producing factory in the country and employing the best technology from Europe, the company maintains volume with uncompromising quality. BSRM is dedicated to providing the best solution for the construction industry. The first ever 50 mm rod was specially designed and rolled for the deep pilling requirements of Padma Bridge. Various specialized products of BSRM are also designed to meet special needs for the construction industry.

Upon arrival, students were given an overview about the company and its vision and mission by the deputy manager of the plant. All students were given the opportunity to visit the plant and observe the rolling process, as well as witness the tensile testing of samples in UTM. During the visit, students had the opportunity to witness the production process, which proved to be highly beneficial for them. In the briefing session held at BSRM, students were given the chance to ask the Head of HR about the company's recruitment process. The session covered topics such as the necessary requirements and preparations needed before applying for jobs at BSRM. Students were encouraged to ask any related queries they had during the session.
