Welcome,Metallurgy is one of the important fields of science that is very useful in human life and has been studied since pre-history. For this reason, in the Department of Materials and Metallurgical Engineering, this field of science is studied in depth, from mineral extraction, manufacturing, treatment processes to degradation of these materials.The Metallurgical Laboratory is one of the institutions in the Department of Materials and Metallurgical Engineering which is formed for supporters in research and learning in the field of metallurgy. This lab is one of the oldest labs that was established together with the establishment of the Department of Material and Metallurgical Engineering. In this laboratory studied metallurgy related to the mechanical properties, physical properties and chemical properties of the material and also the heat treatment process to engineer the properties of the material.For this reason, some practicums in this Lab include Metallurgical Practicum I, Metallurgical II, welding, casting etc. The microstructure of metal and its changes after treatment of the material were studied in the field of metallography which observed the structure of the metal.Finally, with the mastery of knowledge in the field of metallurgy, the technological independence of the Indonesian people who are rich in natural resources will soon be realized.Physical metallurgy is a field of study in metallurgy where the focus are on the physical properties and microstructure transformation of metal and alloys. To achieved good properties in metal and its alloys, the effect of chemical composition, manufacturing method such as casting, jointing, machining, plastic deformation, surface engineering and heat treatment on microstructures transformation has to be developed by research, instruction and industrial service.Best regards,Dr. Eng.
