Historically Metallurgical discipline deals with extraction of metals from their ores, transforming them in different pure or alloy form of different engineering shapes, and to study their internal structure in an atomic scale to correlate with the manifested properties. Comparatively, new dimension of understanding and evaluating newer materials necessitate Materials engineering approach, which is an interdisciplinary field to study all type of engineering materials and advanced materials despite their basic classification.
