Ceramic Engineering
Topics of Study
In this program, you will learn to apply mathematical and scientific principles to the design, development, manufacture, and evaluation of inorganic non-metallic materials. This includes porcelains, cements, industrial ceramics, ceramic superconductors, abrasives, and related materials and systems. You will study chemistry, physics, and mathematics in order to develop a broad understanding of materials, their properties, processing, and applications, and then concentrate on materials and engineering courses specializing in ceramics.
Degrees Available
- A bachelor's degree is sufficient for entry-level ceramic engineering jobs.
- An advanced degree will qualify to teach in higher education, do research and development, or work as consultants or as administrative managers in large corporations.
