The Materials Science and Engineering Department is committed to providing its undergraduate students with a comprehensive engineering experience that goes beyond classroom education. Through the college’s excellent academic support programs, students are encouraged to perform co-op and internship assignments with global industrial partners and investigate solutions to engineering challenges at one of the research centers on campus or at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Our ultimate goal is for our graduates to have the education, training, skills, and experience they need to be successful in their chosen career. This is why we are the future of engineering education and research.
