Make big advances where Chemistry and Physics collide on a molecular level. Understand, predict, and apply the properties of matter in multiple disciplines. Through theory, investigation, and exploration, you will create new knowledge in this broad scientific field that intersects physics and chemistry, and encompasses nanotechnology, electronic materials, surface science, biomaterials, and materials characterization. Explore at the macroscopic level. Prepare on a grand scale for the future ahead.
A broad multi-disciplinary area of science, Materials Science seeks to advance the understanding, prediction, and application of the properties of matter. Through this program, offered jointly by Trent University and Ontario Tech University, students build on and incorporate fundamental science principles into their graduate level research project. Develop skills in project management and effective communication of technical information as you prepare for future-ready success in today's modern environment of research and development in both the public and private sectors. |
