Scientific breakthroughs and technological development often demand an interdisciplinary understanding of relationships between materials, properties and fabrication processes.
The Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Materials Science provides this by building a foundation of fundamental physics, chemistry and mathematics courses, then focusing on key aspects of materials including structure, defects, diffusion, equilibria, phase transformations and growth including behavior at the nanoscale. Courses in material kinetics and quantum phenomena; condensed matter and soft matter; and materials properties, characterization and applications broaden knowledge and reinforce key materials science concepts. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
A completed secondary school (high school) education or equivalent, with a minimum GPA of 2.5 is required. |
