AMS5101 — Materials Analysis & Design I
This course introduces materials science and engineering and covers the following: polymers, ceramics, composites, coatings, and life cycle analysis. The course is designed to be hands-on and applied in nature. One intentional objective of the course is to connect students with the industry so they may better understand how to apply their knowledge to real-world applications. To assist in this objective, several guest lecturers will present during the course, and several materials-related industry tours and meetings are scheduled. The course is designed in such a way that students will learn in groups by working in teams, attending presentations, reading and peer reviewing reports, and working on projects, like what would be anticipated in an industry work setting. pre-req: CHE 3231 or ME 2105 or Grad student or instructor consent
