| Short description |
This course provides an introduction to the foundational concepts of materials science and engineering. It covers the relationship between processing, properties, and structure. What sets this course apart from others is its basic yet essential exploration of materials selection principles. Additionally, it covers the characteristics and properties of various material families, based on their interatomic bonding. Lastly, we examine how materials properties differ across the periodic table. |
