Materials engineering pushes us to explore and create innovative materials by examining the composition, characteristics, and functionality of fundamental resources that shape our world. Breakthroughs in this field frequently drive transformative technologies that reshape our daily lives. The MMaterialsEng program provides comprehensive knowledge of materials development, fabrication, and application, while enhancing leadership abilities. The University aims to accelerate your professional growth by refining both your technical expertise and business acumen. Companies are actively seeking professionals with these competencies across manufacturing, energy sectors, materials refinement and fabrication, as well as emerging metal applications. The MMaterialsEng curriculum blends structured coursework with essential research components, allowing you to select either a focused research project or a collection of independent research work. There's growing industry demand for research initiatives that incorporate Māori and indigenous wisdom, such as sustainable energy materials (like plant-based fibers or biomass-derived graphite) or metal recovery from industrial byproducts. Students can specialize in: biomaterials engineering, sustainable energy materials, or cutting-edge materials manufacturing techniques.
