The Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science
offers Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degree programs
in chemical engineering and in materials science and engineering.
A wide range of course offerings and research activities allows
an individual program to be designed to fit the background,
capabilities, and aims of the student. Studies in the department
may be supplemented with courses offered by other departments
in the College of Engineering and in other colleges.
Special emphasis is placed on the mastery of basic principles
and methods. Courses and research opportunities are available
in the areas of nanotechnology, biomaterials, ceramic materials,
composite materials, electron microscopy, impact damage, intermetallic
alloys, laser processing of ceramics, polymers and their composites,
shape memory alloys, surface, surface modification of metals
and polymers, structural thin film, and superplasticity of
metals, electronic and photonic materials.
The graduate programs in chemical engineering and materials
science and engineering are designed to develop research expertise
needed for the graduate to serve as a principal investigator
in industrial or academic research. The coursework is designed
to expand the student’s knowledge of engineering principles
and applications. Each student also conducts an extensive
research project that significantly advances fundamental understanding
of a chemical engineering or materials science system. Results
of the research are documented in a dissertation and research
paper(s) for publication in a peer-reviewed journal.
