Graduate Degree Programs

Ceramic Engineering

MS in Ceramic Engineering
PhD in Ceramic Engineering

The department has internationally recognized research programs in the areas of glass, electronic ceramics, refractories, structural ceramics, composites, biomaterials, and ceramic processing. Fundamental and applied research interests include structure-property relationships in ceramics and glasses; electrical, dielectric, optical, thermal, and mechanical properties of ceramics; ceramic-ceramic, ceramic-metal, and ceramic-polymer composites; solid-oxide fuel cells; electrical conducting, dielectric, and ferroelectric ceramics; glasses for nuclear waster disposal; glass and ceramic biomaterials for drug delivery and medical implants; processing, sintering, and microstructure control of structural and functional ceramics; defect chemistry, thermochemistry, and phase equilibria. <<more information>>
