Materials Science and Engineering

Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) is an interdisciplinary field of metallurgy, solid state physics, glass and ceramic technology, polymer chemistry, and inorganic chemistry. Our mission is to create advanced materials based on ingenious concepts. We are working to develop novel methods to transform “natural substances” into “materials that are useful for human beings” through investigating fundamental properties of various materials experimentally and theoretically at multiple length and time scales. The production of novel materials will lead to paradigm shifts in the development of innovative technologies that can benefit the future of humankind.
