What is Surface Engineering?
SURFACE ENGINEERING is a multidisciplinary activity intended to tailor the properties of the surfaces of engineering components so that their function and serviceability can be improved
SURFACE ENGINEERING DEFINITION: “Treatment of the surface & near-surface regions of a material to allow the surface to perform functions that are distinct from those functions demanded from the bulk of the material“ The ASM Handbook

What is Surface Engineering?
SURFACE ENGINEERING can involve an overlay process or a surface modification process
In overlay process (Coating/Thin Films) a material is added to the surface and the underlying material (substrate) is covered and not detectable on the surface.
(ii) A surface modification process changes the properties of the surface but the substrate material is still present on the surface.
