METALLURGY f s? V. Manuel R. Castellanos . ' i BR p( m V Julian H. Cherubini David A. Colling ' DeWayne C. Ganow Thomas K. Goldstick Ronald S. Knitisch PROF. JOHN CHIPMAN 24 Metallurgy deals with the recovery of metals from their crude ores, refining them and preparing them for use. To meet these broad demands the course in metallurgy offers two options, one in metallurgy, the other in mineral engineering. These options are designed to train the men in a specific line of work, but despite the specialized curriculum, the graduate is able to choose from a wealth of industries where metals are used. The curriculum in Metallurgy ( Option 1 ) is designed to balance the fundamentals of physics and chemistry, and to follow these with specialized studies in the science of metals. The engineering training deals primarily with the refining of metals from the ores, casting or forging of the metal, and the control of the structural properties of metals. Mineral engineering deals with the mineral compounds of metals, their separation and extraction. Included in these fields are the sciences of crystal chemistry and min- erology. As long as the world needs metals, there will be a need of competent men to mine, refine, and refashion metals. Course Three men can belong to professional organizations in their field. The American Foundrymen ' s Society, and the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgi- cal Engineering offer the opportunity for members to keep informed of the latest developments in their field, through discussions, and lectures.
