Material-Energy Science and Engineering
To study materials scientifically, and to determine what end uses they can be put to as new materials, source of new functional properties, and new energy sources, integrated training from their micro properties to their macro effects is necessary. Based on this perspective, the Material-Energy Science and Engineering Major is based on a new educational and research system that aims to archive a fusion between physics, chemistry, and engineering, and to train scientists and engineers with a solid knowledge of the basic elements of each.
Four courses of study are offered within the Material-Energy Science and Engineering Major.
|
Fundamental Properties of Materials Course |
Solid State Physics , Ultra fine Particle and Surface Physics |
|
|
Molecular Science Course |
Molecular Structure and Dynamics , Molecular Function Development , Molecular Transformation Chemistry |
|
|
Material Function Course |
Optoelectronic Materials and Devices , Material Strength , Design Engineering , Materials Forming |
|
|
Energy Course |
Electrical Energy , Thermal Energy |
The four courses complement and interact with each other. Consideration has been given to allow students to experience a combination of theoretical and experimental subjects for example by allowing them to take subjects from both the Fundamental Properties of Materials Course in the Material-Energy Science and Engineering Major and the Theoretical Physics Course in the Mathematical Sciences Major.
