Bachelor degrees in Materials Science: A program that focuses on the general application of mathematical and scientific principles to the analysis and evaluation of the characteristics and behavior of solids, including internal structure, chemical properties, transport and energy flow properties, thermodynamics of solids, stress and failure factors, chemical transformation states and processes, compound materials, and research on industrial applications of specific materials.
The educational objectives for the Materials Science & Engineering program are to produce graduates who will be:
* Fully qualified as entry-level materials engineers, with an ability to adapt and progress in a rapidly changing field.
* Well-rounded individuals who both understand the principles and can undertake the practice of the science and engineering of materials.
* Able to operate as effective engineers or scientists...
Students interested in pursuing intensive study in Materials Science should
contact the Chemistry or Physics Department for advice in formulating an independent
program of study. You can then apply to the Committe on Student Standing and
Programs for consideration and approval of such an independent Concentration.
All technologies are based upon materials. The performance of technological systems is often limited by the materials that are available for their design. This is true of integrated circuits, jet engines, structural ceramics, fuel cells, medical sensors, and a wide variety of other high technology devices. Materials science focuses on understanding the physical, chemical and engineering properties of solid state materials, such as semiconductors,...
Material Science broadly encompasses the fundamental study of solid matter with the goal of engineering new materials with superior properties, and ultimately enabling altogether new types of devices. Historically, materials science focussed on metallurgical and ceramic systems, and the state of technological achievement of ancient (European) societies has been described in terms of materials – the stone age, the bronze age and the iron age....
Materials Science & Engineering (MSE) is an engineering discipline that applies the tools of basic and applied sciences and engineering to the manufacture and application of materials and devices, because essentially every technology (historical, modern, and future) depends on materials development and innovation. The four broad classes of Materials to which this paradigm is applied are metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites.
The undergraduate curriculum , leading to the degree Bachelor Science Materials Science and Engineering, consists of the Engineering Core ” basic courses in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and engineering, with electives in social sciences and humanities ” plus materials courses, technical electives, and open electives. In total, 129 credit hours are required....
To prepare our graduates for challenging and productive careers related to the science and engineering of materials, especially metals, ceramics, electronic materials, and composites. The primary means of accomplishing this mission will be our undergraduate curriculum and associated activities, through their emphasis on:
The interrelationships between the processing, structure, properties, and performance of engineering materials
