METALLURGICAL ENGINEERING

The Metallurgy department, in association with the Mining department, provides the major subjects in the Metallurgical Engineering degree course which is a means of entering a professional career in either the primary production of metals, the engineering utilization of metals and alloys, or research and developmental projects in metal production, fabrica- tian and application. For many years the Australian demand for graduates in Metallurgical Engineering has exceeded the supply, and there is ample evidence that this situation is likely to continue for an extended period, especially in view of the rapidly growing impor- tance of metals in regard to the nation's industrial development and future prospects for export markets.

In 1882 studies in Metallurgy as associated with Mining were introduced as part of an option in the fourth year of the newly created degree course in Civil Engineering. This arrangement continued until 19o1 when the Mining Engineering degree course was intro- duced; from this date until 19гз, Metallurgy was included in the Mining Engineering course. Iń 1924 the Metallurgical Engineering degree course was introduced and the first chair in Metallurgy in an Australian university was established. The course has been in existence continuously since 1914.

The Baillieu Laboratory, a post-graduate section of the Metallurgy school, was established in 1946. In the same year the Physical Metallurgy section of the C.S.I R.O. was created as an integral part of the Baillieu Laboratory. Since 1952 an Industrial Research Section has been built up in the Metallurgy department, and since 1g55 the Brown Coal Research Laboratory, originally started in the department of Mechanical Engineering, has been associated with the department.

The staff of the Metallurgy department comprises twelve full-time teaching officers and eight full-time research officers. In addition there are five full-time members of C.S.I.R.O.

in the Baillieu Laboratory. The department's laboratories and offices are in a separate building adjacent to the Engineering school.

The teaching and research activities of the department are classified under two main headings of Materials Science and Materials Processing. There are, of course, numerous instances where overlap occurs, and this ensures coherence in the department's contribu- -

tions to the work of not only the Engineering Faculty, but also the Faculties of Science, Applied Science, Dental Science, and Architecture.

Both the undergraduate and post-graduate activities in Materials Science include a treatment of non-metallic substances along with the study of metals and alloys. In this way both the students and the staff gain a deeper understanding of metals while at the same time acquiring breadth in their appreciation of other materials such as ceramics, furnace linings, and plastics. Emphasis is placed on the importance of interatomic bond type and crystal structure as affecting the physical and mechanical properties of all materials, with particular reference to metals and composite materials which incorporate metals.

In the field of Materials Processing the Metallurgy department deals with chemical processes such as roasting, smelting, electrolytic extraction and refining, ion exchange systems, and distillation methods. The physical operations of crushing, grinding and mineral separations are studied in the Mining department. The chemical or extraction metallurgy section of the Metallurgy department's work ' includes both the physical chemistry of processes and the chemical engineering aspects of the commercial production of metals.

The Metallurgical Engineering degree course lays emphasis on mathematics and basic scientific studies in the first two years. During the third and fourth years the emphasis shifts towards the applications of scientific principles and the examination of the main technological features of materials and their processing.

The Metallurgy department also offers major subjects in Metallurgy courses conducted under the auspices of the Faculties of Science and Applied Science.

Post-graduate studies, with emphasis on experimental research, are features of the department's activities. Graduate students may be enrolled as candidates for the degrees of master of Engineering Science, master of Science, or doctor of Philosophy. Persons with considerable experience in metallurgical research and development may present as candi- dates for the more senior degrees of master of Engineering, doctor of Science or doctor of Engineering.

The Metallurgical Engineering course is recognized by The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, and The Institution of Engineers, Australia. It also has appreciable standing in connection with the professional requirements for membership of The Institu- tioп of Metallurgists, London.
