University of Alabama Birmingham - INTO USA

The world is made out of all sorts of stuff - metals, plastic, glass, stones, almost anything you can think ofand materials engineers not only study how to make that stuff but also why we use it. As a grad, you can go on to work in aerospace, chemical, automotive, metals casting, biomedical, or microelectronics fields.For success in this field, we believe hands-on experience is invaluable. Thats why we complement your classes with labs, research, internships, and co-ops. We offer a general curriculum, or you can focus on tissue engineering and implants, metals and automotive materials, or the chemical makeup of polymers. Plus, you can enrich your experience with additional research and seminars in our honors program, or even get a certification to teach general science through the UABTeach program. Best of all, youll have access to our state-of-the-art 20,000 square-foot Materials Processing and Development (MPAD) facility.
