Overview

Key Facts

Students in the Carnegie Mellon University program will gain a fundamental understanding of materials structure, properties, and the processing of materials and how computational approaches can contribute to that knowledge.

After completing this program, they will understand how to use and implement computational tools and adapt them to solve problems in MSE.

Our M.S. degree in Computational Materials Science and Engineering provides the foundation of all MSE activities while allowing for students to take advanced courses in computational methods in MSE.

Students will normally complete the degree in three full-time (15 week) academic semesters.
