MSE 2001 is 3 credit introductory course in materials science and engineering. It is both a fundamental class for materials science and engineering and a general requirement for other engineering majors, such as mechanical engineering.

Topic List[edit | edit source]

  • Atomic Scale Structure
  • Crystal Structures
  • Point Defects and Diffusion
  • Crystalline Defects
  • Non-Crystalline Materials
  • Phase Equilibria and Phase Diagrams
  • Structural Transformations
  • Mechanical Properties
  • Electrical Properties

Prerequisite Knowledge[edit | edit source]

Chemistry[edit | edit source]

Basic chemistry concepts, such as bonding, electronegativity, and atomic structure, are used throughout in MSE 2001. While a strong understanding of these concepts can be helpful, only basic exposure to these concepts is necessary to do well in MSE 2001.

Future Outlook[edit | edit source]

For materials science and engineering majors, this course is a prerequisite for almost all upper level MSE courses and serves as an introduction to the major. For other engineering majors, this course is less significant, only serving as a prerequisite for a small number of major requirements, such as ME 3210 for ME majors. However, an understanding of materials science and engineering is still important for nearly all engineering majors.
