About Engineering Materials

Engineering Materials is an application that contains the theory of Engineering Materials (metals, ceramics, polymers and composites) to a level that they are able to understand and use, in engineering problems/design, the principles governing the microstructure and mechanical properties of these materials.

Materials are probably more deep seated in our culture than most of us realize. Transportation, housing, clothing, communication, recreation, and food production virtually every segment of our everyday lives is influenced to one degree or another by materials. Material science involves investigating the relationships that exist between the structures and properties of materials. In contrast, material engineering involves, on the basic of these structure-property correlations, designing or engineering the structure of a material to produce a predetermined set of properties.

Engineering Material course will provide student fundamental of the Structure – Properties – Design – Performance of all types of materials (ceramics, metals and their alloys, polymers and composites thereof).

What is Materials Engineering?

New materials have been among the greatest achievements of every age and they have been central to the growth, prosperity, security, and quality of life of humans since the beginning of history. It is always new materials that open the door to new technologies, whether they are in civil, chemical, construction, nuclear, aeronautical, agricultural, mechanical, biomedical or electrical engineering.

Materials scientists and engineers continue to be at the forefront of all of these and many other areas of science, too. Materials science and engineering influences our lives each time we buy or use a new device, machine, or structure. (You can read more about the impact of this exciting field in our list of suggested readings.) The definition of the academic field of Materials Science & Engineering stems from a realization concerning every application of materials: it is the properties of the material that give it value. A material may be chosen for its strength, its electrical properties, resistance to heat or corrosion, or a host of other reasons; but they all relate to properties.
