Graduate profile

Description
The subject of the study program is the acquisition of knowledge from the theory of metallurgical processes, material sciences, processing and casting of steel and ferroalloys, production of non-ferrous metals from ores, concentrates and waste, production of precious metals. The graduate has basic knowledge in the natural sciences of mathematics, chemistry, physics, metal production, casting, foundry, production and application of non-metallic materials, high-temperature processes, thermal engineering and metallurgical energy; master the basic methods and means of organizing, managing and simulating processes. He has an overview of numerical and physical simulations of metallurgical processes. He understands the laws of conservation of matter and energy. He knows energy sources and fuel combustion technologies.
Learning objectives
The graduate has basic knowledge in the natural sciences of mathematics, chemistry, physics, metal production, casting, foundry, production and application of non-metallic materials, high-temperature processes, thermal engineering and metallurgical energy; master the basic methods and means of organization, management, modelling and simulation of processes. He has an overview of numerical simulations and physical modelling of metallurgical processes. He understands the laws of the preservation of matter and energy. He knows energy sources and fuel combustion technologies. The graduate understands technical, economic, managerial and legal disciplines within the scope of the department's needs; understands the interrelationships, knows the necessary theories, concepts and methods of the field allowing to collect data and perform problem analysis for the performance of lower technical or management functions; understands the possibilities, conditions and limitations of using theories, concepts and methods in technical practice; can independently implement a less demanding research project, search for, sort and present information relevant to the solution of the assigned task, or even propose simple innovative procedures. It applies knowledge from the field of combustion processes and heat exchange in thermotechnical processes. It focuses on the greening, digitalization and decarbonization of industry and solves the interchangeability of energy sources.
