The Master's Degree in Engineering, processing and characterization of materials is an interdisciplinary field of knowledge that covers the study of the structure, properties, processing and applications of all types of materials; metal, ceramic, polymer and biological. The characterization and processing of materials encompasses not only traditional structural materials but also functional materials, nanomaterials, ecomaterials and biomaterials. This young discipline is essential to enhance industrial capacity, technological innovation and improve the quality of our lives. Studies of the behavior of these materials are also addressed, as well as the development of the latest technologies in the prediction of their behavior.
