我们的实验室帮助冶金工程研究生进行有影响力的研究. Use state-of-the-art analytical, laboratory, and field equipment. 您将有机会使用仪器进行冶金工程研究,并有机会与教师进行一对一的工作.
Internships
通过在许多就业领域的各种冶金工程实习,获得更多的实践经验, such as engineering consulting, biomaterials, or aerospace. As an in-demand metallurgical engineering student, you’ll have your pick of top internships in your area of interest.
Outstanding Location
While earning your graduate degree in materials science and engineering, 你也将有无数的机会享受蒙大拿州的户外美景,无论是在比尤内外还是在整个州. Butte boasts access to several ski hills, hot springs and a plethora of camping, hiking, road and biking locations.
5th Year Master’s
合格的蒙大拿州理工大学本科生有机会获得加速硕士学位,通过获得所需的研究生课程的启动. 精心设计,将合格的研究生水平的课程纳入本科课程,将导致加速硕士学位.
What is Metallurgical and Materials Engineering?
冶金与材料工程是一个多元化和有趣的专业,影响着我们经济的几乎每一个方面. It applies chemistry, physics and math to recycling and treating wastes, separating minerals into concentrates, producing and purifying metals, manufacturing metals into products, creating materials, and joining materials together.
冶金与材料工程专业的学生通过一系列的实验室学习创新的奇迹,以及如何操纵材料以满足现代需求. As one of Montana Tech’s lab-based “heritage programs,学生通过在强调实践性的实验室中“动手”体验式学习来强化理论概念, industry-based exercises.
冶金和材料工程学位可以在广泛的领域找到高薪工作.
What Kinds of Jobs Do Metallurgical/ Mineral Processing Graduates Get?
冶金/矿物加工毕业生从事金属和非金属加工和制造的各个方面的工作. 矿物加工工程师有责任接受从地球上开采出来的矿石, comminuting the ore until liberation occurs, and then removing the valuable minerals in the form of concentrates. 冶金工程师从精矿中提取有价值的金属, remove impurities from the metals using aqueous or thermal chemistry, and then market the purified metal as a commodity. 物理冶金工程师接受各种纯化金属和合金来控制许多特性,包括强度和耐腐蚀性. 材料工程师控制相同的特性,但与塑料有关, composites, glasses, ceramics, etc.
Explore Classes in Metallurgical and Materials Processing
M.S. 冶金/选矿工程学位可通过两种选择获得. 选择A,论文选项,需要20个课程学分,8个论文学分和3个研讨学分. 选项B,非论文选项,需要34个课程学分和3个研讨学分. 课程计划将由学生和研究生导师与研究生咨询委员会协商后确定. The student must demonstrate competence in both oral and written communication, advanced mathematics, and use of computers.
Off-campus research is encouraged. 学位要求与上述内部研究论文项目相同. 这允许学生在他们工作的地方进行论文研究项目.
