MEng in Materials Science and Engineering - Advanced Water Technologies in Toronto Canada | University of Toronto

The Department of Materials Science and Engineering provides advanced degree programs including Master of Applied Science (MASc), Master of Engineering (MEng), and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD). Qualified students can pursue graduate studies and research across various disciplines. Research focuses span structural analysis, fabrication techniques, and material characterization for metal alloys, ceramic coatings, semiconductors, nanocomposites, and biomaterials, with significant attention given to computational modeling and simulation.
Chemical metallurgy topics examine oxide reduction processes, iron/steelmaking slag characteristics, reaction kinetics at high temperatures, metallurgical process modeling, extraction metallurgy, and hydrometallurgical techniques. Physical metallurgy and materials science explore the characteristics of metals, ceramics, and polymers, investigating deformation mechanics, surface science, microscopy applications, biomedical materials, nuclear materials, nanocomposites, amorphous metals, degradation mechanisms, structural fatigue, joining technologies, phase changes, and crystallization processes.
These investigations aim to elucidate the connections between material structure, properties, and manufacturing processes, facilitating the creation of innovative materials and systems while promoting sustainable production methods that incorporate environmental impact assessment and material reuse strategies.
This curriculum delivers specialized training in materials engineering, enabling students to earn a career-focused graduate degree from Canada's premier engineering institution within a one-year timeframe.
Students completing the Advanced Water Technologies Emphasis will receive transcript recognition, verifying specialized expertise in water purification technologies.
