MS Metallurgical Engineering

The program leading to the degree of “Master of Science in Metallurgical Engineering” aims to provide students with the advanced education that will prepare them for professional careers as leading metallurgical engineers in the industry, academia, or the public sector.  The MS MetE can work for the mining and minerals industry so that sustainable and environmentally friendly practices will and always be adopted.  Processing of the extracted valuable metals into useful, functional, and higher value-added products can also be headed by engineers with this specialization.

MS Materials Science & Engineering

The program leading to the degree of “Master of Science in Materials Science and Engineering”, or MS MSE, aims to provide students with advanced education that will prepare them for professional careers as materials scientists and engineers in the industry, academia, or the public sector that can handle development and innovation required for the emerging needs for green or environmentally friendly materials, biomaterials, nanomaterials, and other smart and functional materials.

PhD Materials Science & Engineering

The program leading to the degree of “Doctor of Philosophy in Materials Science and Engineering”, or PhD MSE, aims to provide students with advanced graduate education that will prepare them for professional careers as high-level materials scientists and engineers in the industry, academia, or the public sector. The PhD MSE Program is specifically designed to enable students to (a) obtain a broad, integrated, interdisciplinary understanding of the four core elements of MSE — the structure/composition, properties, synthesis/processing, and performance of materials — and their interrelationships; (b) acquire a specialized, thorough knowledge of at least one class of materials (e.g., ceramics, polymers, composites, alloys, semiconductors, etc.); and (c) gain the competence to undertake original and independent research in materials science and engineering.
