MSE additional major programs

Students may choose to augment the traditional Materials Science and Engineering degree with the addition of courses specializing in the policy implications of engineering (Engineering and Public Policy), the biomedical aspects of engineering (Biomedical Engineering), or the entrepreneurial knowledge needed to take your engineering ideas to the next level (Engineering Design, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship).

Students pursuing these opportunities are not educated to be a different kind of engineer; rather, their education is intended to enable them to be better, more socially responsible engineers in the traditional technical fields.

Materials Science and Engineering/Biomedical Engineering (MSE-BME)

Combines the strong foundation in mathematics and physical sciences associated with materials science with the development of skills to rigorously analyze the implication of engineering activities in a biological and medical context.

While most MSE students select the TCB track when pursuing an MSE-BME degree, additional tracks are available.

Materials Science and Engineering/Engineering and Public Policy (MSE-EPP)

Materials Science and Engineering/Engineering Design, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship (MSE-EDIE)

Provide students the know-how to pioneer products around technology and deliver product solutions to the people who need them. with the ability to design, develop, and deliver economically viable solutions to the real-world challenges of today and tomorrow.
