MSc in Materials Science in Cincinnati United States | University of Cincinnati

The Metallurgical Engineering Master of Science program focuses on engineering applications of metallic materials, covering areas like high-temperature mechanical characteristics such as creep, fatigue, and alloy fracture behavior, along with powder metallurgy, tribology, and solidification processes. Students will gain hands-on experience with advanced instrumentation through research projects, including mechanical testing systems (MTS), electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction (both small-angle and wide-angle), and spectroscopic techniques like Raman, infrared, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

The department provides graduate programs in both Materials Science and Metallurgical Engineering. Students can select their preferred track based on their academic background, research interests, and career goals. The Materials Science program allows specialization in Polymeric Materials, Metallic Materials, Ceramic Materials, or advanced materials like Composites and Biomaterials. This program emphasizes analyzing molecular and atomic structures and their connection to macroscopic material properties, including strength, phase transitions, and adhesion.
