• This degree teaches theoretical and practical skills that will put at the forefront of innovation in developing materials that are lighter, greener and stronger. The studies begin with a strong foundation in mathematics, chemistry and physics before delving deeper through courses in fundamental properties, structures of materials, aspects of engineering design, application and selection of materials.
  • Students will become more specialised in the later stages of the degree through electives, practicals and the Honours research project. Electives include ceramic engineering, materials engineering, physical metallurgy and process metallurgy.
