Course Description
Engineering is the science that enables the synthesis and application of materials in everyday society. Nearly everything we use is made of a material that has been modified or designed by a materials engineer to perform better than it would without a little help from humans. Materials scientists and engineers develop new materials and ways to use them. The program covers all the main types of materials and processing technologies and covers advanced subjects related to all the principal classes of materials (metals, polymers, ceramics) solid state physics and materials characterization with emphasis on biomaterials.
