Bachelor degrees in Materials Engineering: A program that prepares individuals to apply mathematical and materials science principles to the design, development and operational evaluation of materials and related processes used in manufacturing in a wide variety of settings; the synthesis of new industrial materials, including marrying and bonding composites; analysis of materials requirements and specifications; and related problems of system design dependent on materials factors.
Glass has been used for thousands of years--in drinking glasses, storage bottles, prized decorative objects, and jewelry. Glass has the same uses today, but has become a truly high-technology material used in sophisticated windows that control light and heat, in fiber optics for high-speed communication, and in advanced medical treatments such as bone-setting materials. Engineers and scientists who understand glass and its production are needed by...
Advanced materials are critical to nearly every modern technology (electronics, transportation systems, and medical devices). They also play an important role in the solutions to energy and environmental problems we face today. Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) is the broad interdisciplinary field that uses the principles of chemistry, physics, engineering, and biology to develop the improved materials. With an increased focus on nanotechnology,...

Modern engineering applications in all fields require new materials with properties well beyond those obtainable with the alloys available years ago. New materials, such as composites, ceramics, polymers, semiconductors and their manufacturing processes, are needed for such diverse applications as air transports, undersea deep submergence vessels, magnetic and semiconducting devices. Scientific knowledge in this area has expanded recently at a rate...
The recent growth in the area of Biomaterials is driven by a series of breakthroughs in chemistry, physics and engineering, combined with advances in molecular biology. The Biomaterials Track is designed to equip a polymer student with the necessary background in chemistry, biology, and medicine, for future work in the emerging biomaterials and biotech areas. The interdisciplinary nature of the Engineering degree (major field: Polymer Science and...
The undergraduate major in Statistics builds on the breadth of study begun as part of the Arts and Sciences Core to include courses in foundations of statistics, statistical methodology, and data analysis, in addition to courses in a substantive field to which statistics is frequently applied. The goal is to give the undergraduate student an appreciation of each facet of the discipline and some technical understanding as well.
