Department of Materials Science and Engineering

The Department of Materials Science and Engineering focuses on understanding and designing materials—such as metals, plastics, ceramics, and composites—that form the foundation of all manufactured products. It combines principles of physics, chemistry, and engineering to improve existing materials and develop new ones with specific properties like strength, flexibility, or heat resistance. Students and researchers in this department work on innovations that enhance technologies in industries like aerospace, healthcare, electronics, and energy, contributing to advances in everyday life and industry solutions through the scientific study of materials.
