Independent research conducted under the guidance of a faculty member towards the completion of a Ph.D. Thesis.

Advanced study of failure of structural materials under load, mechanics of fracture, and microscopic and macroscopic aspects of the fracture of engineering materials. Crosslisted with CHBE, CEE, ME, and MSE 7772.

Principles of selecting materials and processes for engineering applications. Methodologies for designing new materials and conceiving hybrid solutions. Credit not allowed for both MSE 4790 and ME 4213 (or ME 4790).

Fundamental properties at the nanoscale for photonics and sensors. Nanoscale fabrication methods including thin films, ion beam, lithography, electroplating, and example case studies in NEMS/MEMS and photonics. Credit not allowed for both MSE 4766 and ME 4766.

Independent research conducted under the guidance of a faculty member.

Concepts of computational modeling and statistics, with examples based on materials science and engineering applications.

MSE 3002 teaches students how to design the composition, phase assemblage, & microstructure of materials. Students will apply thermodynamic, transport, and kinetics principles to (1) predict the equilibrium and non-equilibrium phase assemblages in materials systems and (2) develop phenomenological models to understand the atomic-scale processes that influence and control phase transitions.
