Advanced Materials Science and Engineering MSc

Loughborough University

This programme will provide you with the expertise in advanced materials and engineering needed to design and innovate sustainable materials for today’s world.Materials is a discipline which underpins global industry, opening worldwide opportunities for a well-paid and rewarding career. From materials developed to increase the effectiveness of replacement joints to advances for a more fuel-efficient vehicle design, opportunities are endless. The programmes have a long track record of delivering high-quality and research-led education. The development of new and improved materials is at the very heart of a range of technologies and you'll have the opportunity to explore and deepen your understanding of the scientific, engineering and design aspects of materials, their structure, properties, processing, in-service behaviour and environmental impact, at a more advanced level.On successful completion of the programme, you should be able to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of:the underlying principles and relationship between properties of materials and their composition and microstructure the synthesis and production of materials and the relationship between this and their subsequent properties the underpinning concepts and practical use of a range of characterisation techniques.
