Research
We capitalize on the study and application materials to optimize their performance, whether it's creating stronger, lighter composites for aviation, more efficient semiconductors for electronics, or environmentally friendly materials for energy storage.
Graduate
Advanced degrees from the Department of Materials Science & Engineering prepare students for high-level jobs in industry, research and higher education (faculty).
Assistant Professor William Meier grows crystals in his materials science and engineering lab to study fundamental physics. These crystals end up in technologies like microchips, lasers, quantum sensors and fusion reactor components.
The Applied Superconductivity Center (ASC) advances the science and technology of superconducting magnets, working from atomic-scale fundamentals through complex conductors to constructing the highest-field superconducting magnets yet made.
