Metallurgical Engineering

The scientific repertoire in the field of metallurgical engineering is wide ranging from those that are in direct contact with mining work, namely the processing of minerals or mining materials through the separation of valuable minerals from impurities, then proceed with the extraction process to extract valuable metals and then finally make efforts to engineer metals that have been extracted to become metal alloys that can provide the properties needed for engineering uses in various fields such as energy generation, oil and gas, mining, transportation, construction, communication, medical, chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries. In this downstream area, scientific developments are dynamic and rapid, especially to provide metal alloys for strategic industries including defense and security. To respond to these demands, research activities have been carried out for undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral students. Increasing the level of research from laboratory scale to commercial scale continues to be pursued. In the future, it is planned to increase research orientation to get a higher level of industrial readiness. Cooperation with external parties, especially industry, is sought to be more intensive in order to lead to self-sufficiency in the production of high-quality metal alloys in the country to reduce import dependence.
