Materials Science and Engineering (BS): Nanomaterials Concentration
The Materials Science and Engineering (BS): Nanomaterials Concentration provides a comprehensive understanding of materials science and engineering, emphasizing the unique properties of materials at the nanoscale. This concentration delves into the fundamental principles governing the interactions and characteristics of materials at the atomic levels. Students explore advanced topics such as the design and manipulation of ultra-thin films, nanowires, nanoparticles, and other nanostructures and gain a deep understanding of how nanoscale phenomena—such as quantum confinement, surface area effects, and interfacial properties—differ from the behaviors observed in bulk materials. They also study how engineering materials at the nanoscale can impact their structural and functional properties, enabling groundbreaking applications in fields such as electronics, energy storage, biotechnology, and advanced manufacturing.
