Learning Outcomes
- demonstrate a basic understanding of the types of problems encountered by metallurgical engineers especially how they can be applied in societal context.
- identify and apply techniques that can be used to solve the problems encountered by metallurgical engineers.
- demonstrate an understanding of and be able to communicate the fundamental principles, chemistry and physical properties of engineering as applied to more advanced problems in mineral processing, concentration, extraction and recovery.
- connect science and technology to real-world problems by explaining how this material relates to problems of societal concern.
- distinguish between sound and unsound interpretations of engineering and scientific information, and employ cogent reasoning methods in their own examinations of problems and issues.
