This course is designed to introduce the structures and properties of the principal materials such as metals, ceramics, polymers, and composites used in industry. Students will also gain an understanding of the processing and design limitations of materials as well as recycling, sustainability and green engineering. Topics fundamental to the further study of materials, such as mechanical properties of metals and metal alloys, ceramics and polymers, thermal expansion and thermal conductivity of materials, optical and electrical properties, defects and failure in solids, corrosion and degradation will be emphasized as foundations for future industrial engineering courses.
