Materials Science and Engineering, M.S.M.S.E. at University of South Florida

The field of Materials Science and Engineering applies the fundamental principles of physics and chemistry to engineering materials, with a focus on the interrelationship between material structure, their properties, and the means by which they are processed. MSE impacts multiple facets of our economy, such as aerospace, electronics, transportation, communication, construction, recreation, entertainment, environment and energy. It is, by its very nature, an interdisciplinary field. The goal of the M.S.M.S.E. major in Materials Science and Engineering is to provide a route for well‐qualified undergraduate students who desire in‐depth graduate‐level work including structured courses and research experience, in preparation for work in industry or for entrance into a relevant science or engineering Ph.D. major.
