ceramics engineering

Ceramics engineering is the field that focuses on the design, production, and application of ceramic materials, which are inorganic, non-metallic solids. These materials can be found in everyday items like pottery, tiles, and glass, as well as in advanced technologies such as electronics, aerospace, and biomedical devices. Ceramics are valued for their hardness, resistance to heat and corrosion, and electrical insulating properties. Engineers in this field study the structure and properties of ceramic materials to innovate and improve their performance for various industries, ensuring they meet specific functional requirements for diverse applications.
