Bachelor of Science in Materials Science and Engineering

About

The bachelor of science in materials science and engineering is broad-based, encompassing a wide range of materials, and enables students to understand the scientific principles that govern the relationships among processing, structure, properties, and materials performance. Students also learn how to integrate these principles in the systematic design of new materials. Study this professionally accredited degree and investigate the processing, structure, properties and performance of materials. Manipulate existing materials using cutting-edge tools for advanced materials imaging and characterisation. Build your research expertise and interdisciplinary skills through engineering projects. You'll also explore how materials science is transforming technology in emerging areas such as biomedical engineering, 3D printing and robotics. Graduates are well prepared to practice as materials scientists and engineers, excel in graduate study, work to advance the field, or apply their knowledge in other areas, including include law, medicine, or business.
