• MSc in Material Science is a 2-year program at the University of Alabama.
  • This is an on-campus program offered on a full-time basis.
  • It is an interdisciplinary master's program that focuses on the general application of mathematical and scientific principles to the analysis and evaluation of the characteristics and behavior of solids, including internal structure, chemical properties, transport, and energy flow properties, thermodynamics of solids, etc.
  • The program objective is to educate students in the classroom and laboratory so that their technical skillset and knowledge are enhanced through laboratory research and didactic courses.
  • Students are encouraged to pursue the thesis option as it enhances the student's technical skill set, exposes them to new research opportunities, and makes them more attractive to employers.
  • In this program, students will acquire a comprehensive knowledge of materials science at an introductory graduate level.
