Materials Science and Engineering

专业详情

The graduate program in Materials Science and Engineering is an in-depth, hands-on approach to graduate study, centering on the research areas of computational materials, electronic, optical and magnetic materials, microscopies and scattering, materials for energy, materials for health science, structural materials, polymers and soft matter.

Graduate programs at Penn are organized around Graduate Groups rather than traditional departmental divisions. The MSE Graduate Group is a vibrant, multi-disciplinary group and consists of faculty from several departments in the School of Engineering and Applied Science, the Perelman School of Medicine, and the School of Arts and Sciences. This structure provides an ideal environment for interdisciplinary research and an education tailored to meet the complex technological challenges of this millennium.

The research activities in MSE allow the theses of our students to be co-advised by faculty drawn from diverse disciplines. After graduation, many of our students have assumed leadership roles in industry and academia.
