There are various branches of engineering. Some of them are the oldest like the civil engineering. Whereas some are the latest streams. Metallurgical engineering is one among them and it deals with metals. The scope of Metallurgical Engineering is also very wide as any other engineering courses. After bachelors degree in engineering many students opt this course as their future career. The interested candidates should update their knowledge and skills in physical metallurgy, extractive metallurgy and mineral processing.

After post graduation in this course the individual can look forward for a job as Metallurgical scientist. To do a course in Metallurgical Engineering one should qualify the entrance test. There are only some institutions which offer this course as a bachelor degree in engineering.  Metallurgical Engineering is basically a post graduation course.
