专业概况

在这里学什么？

The Chemistry/Materials Science major is designed for students who are interested in chemistry with an emphasis on material properties and provides students the opportunity to gain expertise in both chemistry and the science and engineering in materials such as semiconductors, photonic materials, polymers, biomaterials, ceramics, and nano-scale structures. Students explore the reactivity of such materials in different environments and gain understanding of how chemical compositions affect properties. The major provides appropriate preparation for graduate studies in many fields emphasizing interdisciplinary research, including chemistry, engineering, and applied science.

Learning Outcomes

The Chemistry/Materials Science major has the following learning outcomes:

Understanding of the foundations of materials chemistry including nanoscience, materials synthesis, and materials processing

Understanding of different methods for materials characterization, measurement of materials properties, and general structure/function relationships

Familiarity with laboratory methods for materials chemistry and practical laboratory experience with such methods, including X-ray diffraction, optical absorption and fluorescence spectroscopes, electrical measurements, and electron and scanning probe microscopes

Understanding of basic operational principles for a broad range of practical devices (e.g., LEDs, photovoltaics, electrochromics, etc.) from a fundamental materials perspective

Safely and effectively work in a materials laboratory setting

Knowledge of how to handle chemicals in a safe manner following OSHA-approved regulations and procedures

Knowledge of how to use information resources to search and access safety databases

Use of computers, including data acquisition and software tools for calculating and understanding materials properties

Demonstrated broad mastery of materials chemistry including critical thinking, problem solving, working effectively in diverse groups

Communication of knowledge through written reports and oral presentations
