Course Introduction

Material engineering is a crucial discipline in the development and optimization of products across various industries. The selection and design of materials directly affect the performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness of mechanical systems, electronics, and other engineering applications. A strong understanding of material properties, processing techniques, and applications is essential for engineers to create safe, efficient, and sustainable solutions. Material engineers must be able to assess, choose, and manipulate materials to meet the specific requirements of different engineering projects. This program aims to provide participants with the foundational knowledge they need to work effectively with materials in engineering design.

This program covers key topics such as material properties, material selection, structure-property relationships, and processing methods. Participants will learn about metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites, and how to choose the best material for various applications. The course will focus on understanding mechanical, thermal, electrical, and chemical properties of materials. Additionally, participants will gain insights into manufacturing processes and material testing.
