Objectives
The course work for the Materials Science and Engineering minor includes preparatory courses in engineering and courses in basic materials science, as well as advanced courses that would give students a working knowledge of Materials Science and Engineering. A minor in Materials Science and Engineering would make non-Materials Science and Engineering students better qualified for some of the jobs that will become available.
