Metallurgy and Metal Forming

["The Bachelor's degree course of study in Metallurgy and Metal Forming imparts fundamental engineering knowledge in the field of the production and processing of metallic materials. A central component of the course is the extraction of metals from ores using metallurgical processes and their refinement, for example, in steelworks. The focus is also on further processing through continuous casting and forming. In addition to steel production and processing technologies, non-ferrous metal technology processes are also covered.Another focus is on the forming processes of primary and secondary forming, including the process chains of hot and cold forming. The techniques of the iron and steel industry as well as the non-ferrous metal industry are considered. This is supplemented by the forming processes of production engineering in the areas of sheet metal and cold forming.Graduates of the course are qualified to work in all technological areas of the iron and steel industry, e.g. in the processing of ores, in sintering plants, blast furnaces, steelworks, continuous casting plants and in rolling mills for processing continuous casting materials."]
