在這里學(xué)什么?
Materials science and engineering (MSE) at Cornell prepares students to couple fundamental physics, chemistry, and biology with engineering to improve and invent novel materials that enable these advances. MSE at Cornell is a broad, multidisciplinary field devoted to understanding and manipulating the mechanical, chemical, electrical, magnetic, optical, and biological properties of materials. The science side of MSE investigates the basic mechanisms that give materials their properties. The applications side explores ways to modify all types of materials, including metals, semiconductors, and plastics-and even ways to create new materials like nanoparticles-for improving performance metrics, such as speed, strength, compactness, and biocompatibility in engineered products.
With materials required for virtually all engineered products, professionals with training in MSE are employed across all industrial sectors. They are working in every size company, from large corporations in aerospace, chemicals, medicine, and microelectronics to a multitude of tiny startups. Job responsibilities include materials selection and qualification, materials processing, failure analysis, research and design of new materials, and product development. Many MSE students continue for advanced degrees and work in national, industrial, and academic research labs developing the technologies of tomorrow, such as sunlight-harvesting Nano pillars or porous scaffolds for tissue regeneration.
MSE also attracts students interested in business, law, and medicine, as it provides a strong technical background covering a broad sweep of both science and engineering.
Although the MSE program is broad and diverse, it has a clearly defined set of core (required) courses that develop a thorough understanding of basic materials principles. These courses cover, for example, the structure of materials, materials chemistry, thermodynamics and kinetics, mechanical and electronic properties, and concepts of materials design. To complement this core curriculum, you will choose (with your advisor) electives tailored to your career and/or academic interests. These electives explore the breadth of materials and their applications, ranging from bio mineralization to processing of thin films for microelectronics. Electives, typically at the 5000 level, offer undergraduates and graduate students the opportunity to interact with faculty at the forefront of research.
Students are encouraged to take courses outside MSE, both to broaden their general engineering experience and to understand how materials impact specific applications. The major meshes well with courses in many areas, particularly electrical and computer engineering, mechanical and aerospace engineering, and chemical and bio molecular engineering. Courses in these majors often count as electives within the MSE curriculum, or may be taken to satisfy a formal minor or even a double major. Common minors for MSE students include biomedical engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical and computer engineering, and business for engineering students.
