Advanced Materials and Devices involve exploring innovative materials and developing electronic, optoelectronic, magnetic, spintronic, thermoelectric, and other technologies built upon them. Breakthroughs in technology often originate from material science. The electronics sector depends on discovering new gate dielectric materials and interconnect metals to drive progress. Enhancing renewable energy solutions like photovoltaics and thermoelectrics requires novel material discoveries. The emergence of two-dimensional materials has enabled unprecedented performance in electronic and optoelectronic devices. Spintronics research paves the way for ultra-low-power information processing. Proficiency in advanced materials and devices is essential for careers with defense leaders like Northrop Grumman and Raytheon, as well as electronics firms and government research facilities.
Through UC Riverside's Electrical Engineering MS program, you'll gain interdisciplinary training to pursue careers in advanced materials and devices, covering areas such as:
Applied quantum mechanics
Solid-state electronics
Semiconductors and heterostructures
Electronic and magnetic properties of materials
Electromagnetics and antenna theory
Advanced fabrication and manufacturing
