How Carbon and Heat Treatment Affect Metallography and Mechanical Properties of Steel - Part 1
The first of a 2 part series to introduce you to the metallurgical knowledge on the effects of different carbon content on microstructures
You will understand the variations in change in microstructure effecting the grain structures, shape, size and orientation by the effects of heat treatment..
After completing this Part 1 course, you can then commence on our Part 2 course and visually examine the microstructures.

How Carbon and Heat Treatment Affect Metallography and Mechanical Properties of Steel - Part 2
This is Part 2 in the series which you will carry out visual investigations using microscopes. To undertake this course you will have firstly completed Part 1.
This course will maximise your understanding by practical examinations to analyse what the different influences of chemical compositions are upon mechanical deformation and the types of heat treatment that effect steel.

Ductility, Brittleness and Toughness
If you have not considered why there is a need to follow a metallurgical process route or method to solve metallography problems and failures, then this course will reinforce the need.
If you simply want to gain new knowledge and skills to complement skills in your workplace to undertake metallurgical investigations, then this is a good starting point.
The skills learnt on this course are transferrable to your workplace.

An Introduction to Metallography - 3 Day Virtual Lecture
This is virtual 'live' interactive lecture on the Introduction to Metallography and part of a series of lectures.
It is a very practical subject and the series of presentations will provide you with an appreciation of the power of metallography.
The course will be supported by videos, presentation introducing visual, macro and micro techniques. This will be a small group so that discussions can take place with the lecturer at a manageable pace.
