Graduate Program
Advanced Materials Cluster
The advanced materials concentration of the chemical engineering MS program provides training in modern materials engineering and solid-state fundamentals. It is tailored for students who are interested in careers in the ever-growing field of advanced functional materials. Courses focus on nanomaterials technology, semiconductors, polymers, biomaterials, electronic, magnetic, and optical materials, energy materials, interfaces, mechanical properties of materials, and modern materials characterization methods.
To complete the advanced materials cluster, students are required to select from the following electives in addition to the MS core classes in thermodynamics, kinetics, transport phenomena and advanced mathematics
