The Metallurgical Engineering Ph.D. program, administered by the Materials Science and Engineering Department, focuses on advanced research culminating in a doctoral dissertation. Applicants can enter directly into the Ph.D. track without needing a master's degree. By their third year, doctoral candidates must submit a Program of Study, which outlines all planned coursework and research hours for their degree. This comprehensive plan requires approval from the student's Supervisory Committee, who ultimately determines the final course selection for the Ph.D. requirements.
