Biomedical Engineering: Materials Science and Engineering (Ph.D.) ). Select the home department with the materials science and engineering degree track ( i.e. There is no separate admissions process for the materials science and engineering Ph.D. program through one of these departments either as a prospective graduate student or as a current graduate student after they have been accepted by one of the departments (e.g., after they have already started their Ph.D.). Students apply to and enroll in the joint materials science and engineering Ph.D. program: Biomedical Engineering, Chemical and Biological Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering. Students who do not meet all requirements may be admitted into the program pending the successful completion of courses aimed at the fulfillment of the requirements.įive departments are associated with the joint materials science and engineering Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science & Engineering.Īpplicants to the graduate program are expected to have a degree at the level of bachelor's or master's in engineering or basic/applied/health sciences. Students graduating from the doctoral program will receive a joint Ph.D., with a "home department" and Materials Science and Engineering for example, a Joint-Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering: Materials Science and Engineering in Mechanical Engineering: Materials Science and Engineering in Civil and Environmental Engineering: Materials Science and Engineering
in Chemical Engineering: Materials Science and Engineering in Biomedical Engineering: Materials Science and Engineering Master's degrees require a minimum of 30 SHUs and the fulfillment of at least 10 courses at the 100-level or above with grades of S (satisfactory) or at least a B. The master’s degree in Materials Science and Engineering is an interdisciplinary program, with students pursuing classes across multiple departments to achieve mastery in the field. From drug delivery to semiconductors to nano-enabled membranes for water treatment, materials science and engineering at Tufts offers graduate students a wide array of opportunities to study and develop materials that will change the world. Tufts faculty have strengths in soft, structural, electronic, computational, and nano materials. In the modern era, the principal subjects of study for materials scientists and engineers has naturally expanded to include the materials of our present technological base-i.e., semiconductors, nanotechnology, and bio-materials-as well as looking to the materials of the future. So if you’re keen to cross-disciplinary as well as cultural and national borders in your career, this Bachelor’s is the perfect preparation.Materials science is innately an interdisciplinary field that owes its origin back to the age of enlightenment when scientists began to use the tools of analytical thinking from chemistry, physics, and engineering in their study of metallurgy and mineralogy. We invest seriously in intercultural skills and if you want to follow courses abroad we will help you. Even the curriculum has an international perspective: for example, in one of the modules, you will adapt an American power plant for Chinese application, looking not only at the technology but also at environmental and societal interests and regulations. Our programme’s international flavour is another asset, exposing you to students from The Netherlands, other parts of Europe and from around the world, and to staff members from countries such as India, Pakistan, Iran and Spain. Developing skills in interdisciplinary collaboration will give you an edge on the job market. For example, in one of the modules, you will be rubbing shoulders with some of our Design Engineering and Industrial Engineering & Management students. You will learn to team up with experts in other disciplines while becoming firmly anchored in your own field. UT, a world-class university of technology, offers the ideal environment for a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering.
