The Materials module is
designed to create an interest in studying
various types of materials and prepare
students for career options in materials
science and engineering field. Lectures along
with hands-on laboratory activities will help
strengthen students’ understanding of
engineering materials and prepare them for
this fast growing profession. Scientific
principles, mathematical concepts, problem
solving, design and application, and
communication skills are to be taught in
conjunction with activity oriented approach.
Student Outcomes:
-
Students will identify the
different forms of materials as they are
used in our society.
-
Students will recognize
the various types of material and explain
why they are chosen for a specific
technical operation and performance in
industrial settings.
-
Students will be able to
apply the acquired knowledge of the
theory, measurement, testing to the
applications of materials.
-
Students will demonstrate
problem solving ability through
competition based applications and
projects of engineering concepts.
-
Students will understand
key concepts in group dynamics, team
conflict resolution, and negotiation. They
will demonstrate cooperative working
relationships.
-
Students will describe
basic materials processing techniques and
relate them to the anticipated structures
and properties.
