This programme is focused on the detailed studies of metals and alloys. It provides an understanding of the methods of metal production processes and the behaviour of metals. The subjects related to this programme are engineering alloys, physical metallurgical, mechanical metallurgy, extractive metallurgy, welding metallurgy, powder metallurgy, foundry and corrosion engineering.
Metallurgical engineering is a discipline concerned with extracting metals from their ores. It is also about the development, production and use of metallic materials. Process metallurgy is concerned with extracting metals from their ores to make refined alloys, while physical metallurgy involves shaping, alloying, heat treating, joining, corrosion protection and metal testing. Metals are widely used in engineering because they possess a unique combination of mechanical properties (strength, ductility and toughness) plus special physical characteristics (electrical and thermal conductivity) which cannot be achieved by other materials. In addition to thousands of traditional alloys, there are many exciting new materials under development for modern engineering applications such as aluminium-lithium alloys, high strength low alloy steels and metal matrix composites. Non of engineer can make anything without materials. And, of course, civil, mechanical, electrical, chemical, nuclear, aeronautical, agricultural, biomedical, engineers, and all others, have to know something about the materials that they use. The role of the Materials Engineer is to provide specialised knowledge about materials, and to develop new materials that enable other engineers to carry out their work better. Metallurgists find employment opportunities in every industrial sector, and are always in demand. They have a very interdisciplinary training that equips them well for engineering management positions as their careers progress. It typically takes 4 years for students to complete the entire programme.
