The MSc (Master of Science) degree in Metallurgical Engineering can be obtained through two additional years of study and represents a deeper, mostly theoretical knowledge of the given specialization. The specialization is Heat treatment and metalforming. Graduates with a master’s degree in metallurgical engineering are able to produce metals and alloys with the utilization of metallic raw materials and metal-containing waste as well as to process these materials into products with the form and size specified by the processing industry. Production and output in the industry of metal production and metal processing are growing continuously, and it is necessary to produce metal components and structures meeting ever stricter requirements. During the Metallurgical Engineering MSc program students can be specialized in the field of metal forming and the field of heat treatment. Due to the different background of the students, they must attend some of the basic BSc courses of the specialization to achieve a better understanding of the field. This program is designed for those who obtained their BSc degree in similar field and got deeper knowledge in the structures of metals and metal forming. This program will be the right choice for those who are interested in the science and technology of metal forming and heat treatment.
Degree obtained in a technical-engineering field (a BSc degree or a degree obtained in a university or college program). Students must complete all the core, specialization and elective courses that are required. Students must achieve a minimum of 120 credits according to the curriculum of the Metallurgical Engineering MSc program.
