Overview
The Department of Materials Engineering offers graduate programs leading to M.Sc. or Ph.D. degrees in Materials Engineering.
Research
The research is led by an outstanding team of faculty members – all are leading researchers in their areas. The Department provides access to exceptional facilities and state-of-the-art equipment. The research areas encompass both practical and theoretical aspects of materials engineering, including metals, ceramic-metal composites, polymers, electronic materials, thermoelectric materials, semiconductor materials and devices, biomaterials, nanomaterials, magnetic materials, and modern methods of materials characterization. The Department encourages interdisciplinary research, and part of the research work can be carried out in cooperation with specialist researchers from other disciplines, such as Physics, Chemistry, Electro-optical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering.
Students in the M.Sc. program in Materials Engineering at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev carry out advanced research supervised by an expert faculty member. Students graduating with a M.Sc. degree are qualified for senior R&D positions in industry, and can continue towards Ph.D. studies. In particular, M.Sc. studies can be extended to Ph.D. studies in a combined track such that the thesis exam serves also as the Ph.D. candidacy exam.
