All objects consist of constituent materials. Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) focuses on examining these fundamental components. Whether investigating aircraft parts, biological materials, nanotechnology, or additive manufacturing, MSE professionals analyze material structures and characteristics to enhance cost-effectiveness, longevity, and functionality. The MSE curriculum provides students with robust chemistry and physics fundamentals while investigating core material categories: ceramics, polymers, and metals. The program further develops into specialized subjects including Corrosion Studies, Energy Storage Systems, Functional Materials for Electronics, Aircraft Materials, Nanotechnology, 3D Printing, and Material Thermodynamics. Students engage in practical laboratory work, research projects, and a culminating design experience. Graduates pursue careers across diverse sectors including private industry, academic institutions, and public agencies - virtually every domain benefits from materials expertise.

Qualification Requirements
High School Transcripts.
Typically, the most important factor in the admission evaluation process is demonstrated academic achievement in a challenging secondary school program.
The admission committee looks for applicants who have completed the most rigorous academic courses available in their secondary schools and recommends that prospective students should exceed minimum high school graduation requirements. We require an official transcript. The secondary program should include no fewer than 16 academic courses and must include the following courses:
English 4 units
Mathematics 4 units
Foreign Language 2 units
Science (from among biology, chemistry, and physics) 2 units (*)
Social Studies 1 unit
A TOEFL or IELTS score should not be more than two years old. Depending on the school, most admitted graduate students attain a minimum total score of 90 on the internet-based (iBT) TOEFL (including sectional minimums of 22 in speaking, 22 in writing, 23 in reading and 23 in listening). The minimum paper-based TOEFL score requirement is usually 600, and the minimum IELTS score requirement is 7.0.
