Description | Materials Science is a multidisciplinary field that focuses on fundamental science (physics, chemistry, and mathematics) and engineering. Materials Science includes metals, polymers, ceramics, composites, and semiconductors that emphasize on the study of the properties and behavior of materials at all scales, from the atomic to the macroscopic and nanoscopic, as well as the relationships between their structure, properties, processing, and performance. It also allows students to gain a deeper understanding of fundamental materials science and engineering principles, as well as advanced skills in designing, characterizing, and processing materials with tailored properties for specific applications. The course will also provide the opportunity for students to specialize in a variety of applications, including electronic, automotive, biomaterials, nanomaterials, and optical materials. Students may also work on interdisciplinary projects that involve collaborations with researchers from other fields, such as physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering. |
