Materials Engineering - Purdue University - Main Campus

Materials Engineering from Purdue University - Main Campus is a Campus Bachelor Materials Engineering degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. Materials engineering (MSE) influences our lives each time we buy or use a new device, machine, or structure. Materials engineers apply their understanding of metals, ceramics, polymers, composites, biomaterials and electronic materials to design products ranging from cellular phones to aircraft and from antibacterial coatings to biomedical implants. MSE graduates are leading contributors to nanotechnology and aerospace applications of materials . MSE graduates work across nearly every industry and every technology, including producers of materials (e.g. ArcelorMittal, Timken, ALCOA, GE Plastics, Corning, 3M etc.). MSEs also work as designers of new devices and engineering products (e.g. Ford, Intel, Applied Materials , IBM, Zimmer and DePuy Orthopedics, Johnson & Johnson, W. L. Gore, etc.) and with companies that solve major engineering challenges (e.g. Halliburton, Schlumberger, ExxonMobil, BP, Chevron). MSE graduates also find the broad understanding gained through their degree is useful in careers as lawyers, doctors, and pharmaceutical researchers or even as managers of diverse teams of engineers and scientists. Careers: As a materials engineer, you can work on the leading edge in many industries, including microelectronics, the automotive industry, aero/astro companies, consumer products, health care, energy production, and sports.
