Study Level

PHD

A distinguishing responsibility of materials scientists and engineers is that they create, design, and improve products that are vital to our society. Today’s high technology areas of biomedicine, electronic device processing, ceramics, plastics, and other high-performance materials are generating opportunities for innovative solutions that may be provided by the unique background materials scientists and engineers possess. Materials engineering professionals are highly sought by many industries, including the chemical, petrochemical, plastics, electrochemical, industrial ceramics, semiconductor, biochemical/biomedical and environmental engineering fields. Stevens provides exciting and multi-disciplinary research in materials science, with active and well-equipped research laboratories in polymer processing, biopolymers, highly filled materials, microchemical systems, tissue engineering, high-performance coatings, photonic devices and systems, and nanotechnology. Research: The dissertation for the doctoral program can be completed by participating in one of the following research programs of the department: Alternative Energy, Biologically Active Materials, and Crystallization, Electron Microscopy and Polymer Interfaces, Heterogeneous Catalysis, Infrared Spectroscopy, Density-Functional Theory (DFT) Calculations, Mathematical Modeling and Simulation of Transport Processes, Microchemical Systems, Nanomaterial Assembly, Phenomena, and Applications, Polymer Characterization and Processing, Rheology, Modeling, Processing and Microstructure of Filled Materials, Lab-in-Fiber Optofluidics, Surface Plasmonics for Chem/Bio Sensing and Imaging
