This unique course brings together the best of two worlds: Mechanical Engineering, which focuses on designing and building machines, and Metallurgical Engineering, which dives deep into the science of metals how they are extracted, processed, and used in everything from aerospace to manufacturing.It’s a field for problem-solvers, innovators, and anyone curious about the materials and mechanics that keep industries moving.But before you can step into this exciting career path, you need to know where to study it in Nigeria and what qualifications are required. In this blog, we’ll cover a list of Nigerian universities offering Mechanical and Metallurgical Engineering The JAMB subject combination needed for UTME The O’Level (WAEC/NECO) requirements for admission
##What is Mechanical and Metallurgical Engineering Course?
Mechanical Engineering designs, analyzes, builds, and maintains machine systems and tools using physics and material science principles. Metallurgical Engineering focuses on the study and processing of metals and alloys, encompassing their extraction, refining, and how they behave under mechanical and thermal stresses, as well as their application in materials for various products and technologies.
