 Kroll Institute for Extractive Metallurgy - CSM
The Kroll Institute for Extractive Metallurgy (KIEM) was established in 1974 in accordance with a bequest from William J. Kroll, world renowned extractive metallurgist best known for his inventions of processes for the production of titanium and zirconium.
With one technological “foot” placed firmly in the mining-related area of metallurgy, KIEM stands astride the field of metallurgy, focusing on the process of Extractive Metallurgy regardless of application.
History has shown that the demand for research in extractive metallurgy and mineral processing tends to increase on short notice, due among other reasons to changing political, economic, and demographic circumstances.

 Metallurgy @ WASM
WASM postgraduate courses are focused on primary extractive metallurgy which provides the majority of metallurgical employment opportunities in the Australian minerals industry.
WASM's postgraduate metallurgy courses have produced 170 graduates since their introduction in the mid-1970's, and have long been recognised by industry as offering formal qualifications in metallurgy for non-metallurgy graduates and advanced specialist knowledge for metallurgists.
This study combination provides a postgraduate qualification in extractive metallurgy over two years of study on a regional campus, which is advantageous for those seeking residential status with excellent local career opportunities.

 Metallurgy - Article from FactBug.org - the fast Wikipedia mirror site
Metallurgy is a domain of materials science and of materials engineering that studies the physical and chemical behavior of metallic elements and their mixtures, which are called alloys.
Metallurgy is also applied to electrical and electronic materials where as metals such as aluminum, copper, tin and gold are used in power lines, wires, printed circuit boards and integrated circuits.
The macroscopic properties of metals are tested using machines and devices that measure tensile strength, compressive strength and hardness.

 Extractive Metallurgy - MSc
Most applicants will already be employed in the mining industry so employment of graduates is not an issue.  The small number of new metallurgy graduates world-wide provides excellent opportunites for professionals seeking to change career to extractive metallurgy through PG Diploma and MSc studies.
Applicants with other relevant qualifications in extractive metallurgy and extensive industrial experience may be considered for admission.  These students may have to take additional courses prior to taking the MSc units.
This unit is designed to provide opportunities for in-depth study and analysis of developments in operating practices in extractive metallurgy.  Learning is based on supervised study, modules from the Mineral Council of Australia Masters program, approved professional short-courses and a seminar series.
