Materials science and engineering is an interdisciplinary subject involving materials science, engineering and chemistry. Based on materials science, chemistry and physics, this major mainly studies the composition, structure, processing technology, properties and applications of materials. There are many kinds of materials, such as metal materials, inorganic nonmetal materials, composite materials, high resolution materials, nano materials and so on.
Graduates majoring in materials can work in building decoration materials companies, iron and steel enterprises, petrochemical enterprises, manufacturing enterprises, aerospace enterprises, modern inkjet and packaging materials enterprises, ceramics, cement, automobile factories and so on. You can also engage in scientific research and teaching in universities and scientific research units, and you can also engage in administrative management and quality supervision in government departments.
Learning institutions related to materials science and engineering.
Some famous universities in China have their own characteristics in materials science and engineering, such as Tsinghua University, University of Science and Technology Beijing, Harbin Institute of Technology, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Wuhan University of Technology, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Tianjin University, Central South University and beijing university of chemical technology.
Besides studying at home, studying abroad is also a very good choice. Britain, Australia and the United States are popular choices for students.
