Engineering 390 - ADV TOPIC: MATERIAL SCIENCE

Advanced Topics in Engineering is designed as a technical depth course for engineering majors. Course topics can adapt to new technologies and opportunities and build on the engineering fundamentals developed through 100 and 200 level coursework. Permission of the instructor required. Not open to first-years and sophomores.: Periods in human history (e.g., Stone Age, Bronze Age, Silicon Age) have been defined by advancements in new materials. Discoveries in Material Science have lead the way to new technologies in every engineering discipline and continue to be at the forefront of developing fields such as biomaterials and nanotechnology. This course provides a broad introduction into the world of material science with a special emphasis on the relationship between the interrelationship between the composition, processing, structure, and properties of metals, ceramics, polymers and composites. Prerequisites: EGR 270 and CHM 111.
