Materials science

Materials Science involves a study of the relationships between a synthesis, processing, structure, properties, and performance of materials that enable an engineering function. These properties of interest can be mechanical, electrical, magnetic or optical. Engineering function can impact industries involved in electronics, communications, medicine, transportation, manufacturing, recreation, energy, and the environment. While a field has evolved from materials, metals, ceramics, polymers and their various composites. In the recent years there has been increasing focus on creating novel metastable nanostructured materials. In a new fields of nanotechnology and bio materials are providing a materials scientist with an entirely new palette of molecular, organic, biological and inorganic building blocks to design and to assemble nano-engineered materials with unique functionalities.
