Graduate Education

DEPARTMENT OF METALLURGY AND MATERIALS ENGINEERING

Department Introduction

The Department of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering was established following the foundation of our Faculty of Engineering in 1991, after the departments of Computer, Environmental, Industrial, Electrical-Electronics, Chemical, and Mechanical Engineering. In 1997, the Materials Science and Production Metallurgy divisions were activated, leading to the establishment of our department. The department began education in the 2000-2001 academic year. Within the Institute of Science, our department launched its Master's program in the 2003-2004 academic year and the Doctorate program in the 2009-2010 academic year.

Program Profile

The Metallurgy and Materials Engineering department is an engineering discipline that uses theoretical and practical knowledge about material structures to design, develop, and produce products that meet societal needs. Since the dawn of civilization, various materials combined with energy have been used to improve human living standards. In many engineering fields, new designs rely entirely on the development of new materials. Our program equips students with the necessary knowledge and skills to develop advanced technology materials. In the recommended courses, theoretical and practical information is provided about the relationship between process-microstructure-properties-performance, and factors affecting material behavior during use. Additionally, through coursework and thesis studies, we aim to train experts who are researchers, lifelong learners, capable of preparing and managing projects, observant of their environment and developments, and inclined toward multidisciplinary and team work.
