THE ENGINEERING ALPHABET: METALLURGY
AND MATERIALS ENGINEERING
Metallurgical and materials engineers extract, process,
refine, combine, and manufacture natural substances
to create new materials that are stronger and resist
corrosion. Metallurgical engineers work with metal only.
Teams of metallurgy and materials engineers created
the US Air Force's "stealth" technology that
makes a fighter plane's surface nearly invisible to
radar.
