Materials Science and Engineering with Nanomaterials

About this course

Materials Science and Engineering is the discipline concerned with understanding what things are made of and why different materials behave as they do, then using that understanding to design and develop better ones. It spans the full range of material types, from metals and ceramics to polymers, composites and semiconductors, and draws on physics, chemistry and engineering to connect atomic-level structure to large-scale properties and performance. Nanomaterials, which involve structures engineered at the scale of billionths of a metre, represent one of the most exciting frontiers of the field, offering properties that bulk materials cannot replicate and opening new possibilities in medicine, electronics, energy and beyond. At the University of Manchester, this four-year full-time degree includes a foundation year, giving you a strong grounding in the scientific principles you need bef
