Department of Materials Science and Engineering

  Materials science is the foundation of the electronics, informatics, communications, aerospace, machinery, optoelectronics and biomedical industries. Therefore, the field of materials science and engineering is considered as the “mother industry” and plays a crucial role in various high technology industry. 

  Department of Materials Science and Engineering, National Tsing Hua University, founded in August 1972, is the first materials science and engineering department in Taiwan. Also, department of MSE is the first one to recruit the first batch of Ph.D. students in materials science and engineering in Taiwan. We organized various materials science and technology seminars and talent training seminars to carry out comprehensive planning on materials technology education and to engage in systematic training for the talents needed by the respective levels. Additionally, in conjunction with government policies, the relevant technology resources are integrated to establish materials technology with regional features. We also have good reputation in academic performance and abundant research funding from various funding resources. Furthermore, the department regularly organizes materials technology workshops for senior high school teachers, thereby engaging in the first-line rooting work in materials technology education.

  Meanwhile, the department is one of the few places that is equipped with world-class research instrumentation and facilities. Additionally, providing such state-of-the-art facility allows students to have first-hand experience with the most current technologies in materials science, which also gives it a leading status in industry, government, academic and research fields.
