Feedthrough assemblies and methods of manufacturing feedthrough assemblies are provided. Methods include molding a ferrule comprising titanium using metal injection molding and positioning the ferrule about at least a portion of an insulator, the insulator comprising alumina. Methods also include overmolding a ferrule about at least a portion of an insulator using metal injection molding, the ferrule comprising titanium and the insulator comprising alumina. Sintering densifies the ferrule and provides a hermetic seal between the ferrule and insulator. The insulator may be fired or unfired prior to sintering of the ferrule.
