Materials Science and Engineering

Overview

In addition, the program provides students with research training through their courses and thesis research at the MS and PhD levels.

The graduate student body reflects a broad spectrum of undergraduate backgrounds. Because of the expansion into interdisciplinary areas, qualified physical and biological science graduates may also join the program. Students without an undergraduate degree in Materials Science and Engineering are required to take MATE 503 Introduction to Materials Engineering.

Graduate programs in Materials Science and Engineering are offered both on a regular full-time and on a part-time (MS only) basis.
