PhD in Advanced Materials Engineering

The Department of Advanced Materials Engineering studies how the microstructure of materials relates to their properties, and how materials are made, processed, applied and characterized. New materials underpin progress in electronics, automobiles, aerospace, chemicals and energy. The graduate curriculum teaches common principles and basic phenomena behind the structure and properties of various materials, drawing on physics, chemistry and foundational knowledge to explain mechanical, electrical, magnetic, optical and physicochemical behavior. The department offers a doctoral course and awards the Master of Engineering (공학석사) and the Doctor of Engineering (공학박사).
