Hello!

Let me tell you what Metallurgical Engineering is :

Metallurgy is a domain of materials science and engineering that studies the physical and chemical behavior of metallic elements, their inter-metallic compounds, and their mixtures, which are called alloys.

What they Actually do:

As a Metallurgical Engineer, you work with a variety of metals to design new products, refine the collection process, and create different blends of metal to suit specific needs.

Demand of Metallurgical Engineerers:

There is going to be an increase in a number of steel plants in the country, thereby, resulting in the rise in demand for metallurgical engineers. Metallurgical engineers are engaged in logistics of mines and mining, planning of mines and restructuring.

Hope this Helped.

Unlike other core disciplines like electrical, mechanical and civil where demand is always there, demand of metallurgy is highly fluctuating and time dependent. But who are interested in higher study this discipline provides better scope compared to many other engineering disciplines.
