Material Sciences & Engineering

Materials Science and Engineering connect the real world with nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technology, and energy manufacturing. This academic discipline helps to transform scientific and electronic materials for the better through the principles of physics and chemistry. This field of study equips students with the knowledge of material performance, quality, and functional properties. This study aims to invent new methods by combining chemical elements into materials. Materials Science and Engineering is a multidisciplinary and versatile course. Other sub-disciplines of Engineering and Technology largely depend upon the fundamentals of Materials Sciences and Engineering.

Advanced materials required to design and manufacture safer electronic devices and heavy machines rely on the branch of Materials Science and Engineering. These products include cars, car machines, sensors, faster computers, cultivating and harvesting machines, and healthcare electronic devices. Materials Scientists and Engineers develop alternatives through discovery and upgrade materials and products. Materials Scientists and Engineers' responsibility is to conduct tests, monitor performance, document research work, troubleshoot, and supervise product quality. Their expertise in the work extends to that of analysing and preserving artefacts and artwork.
