Beschreibung des Programms

The Department of Mechanical Engineering & Materials Science offers a Master of Science Degree in Materials Science & Engineering with either a Thesis Option or Course Option.

Thesis Option

The quantitative requirement for the degree is 30-credit hours. A minimum of 24 of these units must be course credit, and a minimum of 6 units must be Masters Research, MEMS 599. A minimum of 15 units of the total 30 units must be in MEMS courses.

The overall grade-point average must be 2.70 or better.

Every semester, full-time MS students in MSE are required to take either the department's Graduate Seminar (MEMS 501) or the Graduate Seminar offered by the Institute of Materials Science and Engineering (IMSE 501). These are zero-unit, pass-fail courses.

Degree candidates will plan their programs with the help of their thesis advisor. Courses are to be Engineering courses at 500-level or above, or Chemistry, Earth and Planetary Science, or Physics courses at 400-level or above. Course credit must include at least 12 units (four courses) from a list of approved materials-focused courses, as well as 3 units (one course) of mathematics at the graduate level. The following restrictions apply:

A maximum of 3 units of Independent Study, MEMS 400/500, are allowed.

A maximum of 6 units of 400-level courses are allowed.

Each course must be approved by the candidate’s thesis advisor.

A maximum of 6 units of transfer credit is allowed for courses taken at other graduate institutions, and these must have been taken with grade B or better.

The student must also write a satisfactory thesis and successfully defend it in an oral examination before a faculty committee consisting of at least three members, at least two of which are from the Department of Mechanical Engineering & Materials Science.

Course Option

The quantitative requirement for the degree is 30-credit hours (normally 10 courses). A minimum of 15 units of the total 30 units must be in MEMS courses.

The overall grade-point average must be 2.70 or better.

Every semester, full-time MS students in MSE are required to take either the department's Graduate Seminar (MEMS 501) or the Graduate Seminar offered by the Institute of Materials Science and Engineering (IMSE 501). These are zero-unit, pass-fail courses.

Degree candidates will plan their programs with the help of a departmental advisor. Courses are to be Engineering courses at 500-level or above, or Chemistry, Earth and Planetary Science, or Physics courses at 400-level or above. Course credits must include at least 18 units (six courses) from a list of approved materials-focused courses, as well as 3 units (one course) of mathematics at the graduate level. The following restrictions apply:

A maximum of 3 units of Independent Study, MEMS 400/500, are allowed.

A maximum of 6 units of 400-level courses are allowed.

A maximum of 6 units of transfer credit is allowed for courses taken at other graduate institutions, and these must have been completed with grade B or better.

For BSMS, up to six units can count for both the BS and the MS, as long as the program of studies satisfies the criteria above.

The remaining courses (electives) may be chosen according to the general criteria above, as long as they contribute to a coherent program of study in materials science.

What Lies Ahead

As an engineering school, we need to adapt to the changing environment and to prepare our students to explore, create, and succeed in a world we cannot yet imagine. To address these needs, we have embarked on a five-year strategic plan that draws on our existing strengths to prepare students for the challenges ahead. Among the steps we’ve taken are launching new interdisciplinary programs in highly relevant areas including imaging sciences, data sciences, materials science, cybersecurity and combined programs with math and business. With a 3,350 square-foot makerspace as well as classroom and study space under construction, we’re ensuring we provide everything our students need to succeed.
