Master of Engineering and TechnologyCourse - Metallurgy

Program objective and conception

The objective of the program leading to the Master’s degree in Engineering and Technology is to prepare highly qualified specialists in the field of agglomeration, blast furnace and steelmaking production, who will be able to work creatively in the field of research and metallurgical process modeling, advanced foundry metallurgy and technology improvement of castings production. The basis of this program is computer modeling methodology of iron and steel production processes, and the ability to use it as a tooling for scientific and applied tasks solution of radical enhancement of the efficiency of existing processing, as well as the development of new engineering processes. The distinctive feature of the program leading to the Master’s degree in Engineering and Technology is a creative participation of graduates in the development of modern software systems of computer-aided design and simulation processes of metallurgic production....

Metallurgical Engineering

The Master's Study Branch Modern Metallurgical Technology is designed as a modern study branch aimed at training professionals for current and highly sophisticated metallurgical technologies, covering in detail the issues of theory and technology of production, casting and processing of iron and steel or their forming, including the forming of non-ferrous metals and/or foundry of alloys based on both iron and non-ferrous metals. In addition to these specialization areas, all graduates receive knowledge from the field of technical materials, industrial furnaces, preparation of non-ferrous metals and alloys, methods of planning and quality enhancement as well as managerial economics. Theoretical knowledge is complemented with a number of additional laboratories and computing practical exercises, in which the current laboratory technology is applied, and which address tasks related to metallurgical processes and their modeling. These are mainly focused on the selected study branches, or also partially extend to related study branches, such as Thermal Engineering and Ceramic Materials, or Materials Engineering. The study branch has a unique position in the structure of study fields at Czech universities.... [-]
