Key Summary
About: The PhD in Materials Science links physical science and engineering across applications from health and medicine to nanotechnology, energy and environment. Research focuses on biomaterials; electronic, photonic and magnetic materials; materials for energy storage, conversion and conservation; and materials synthesis, processing and fabrication. The programme includes coursework, experimental and computational research. Keywords: materials science, biomaterials, energy materials, nanotechnology, synthesis, processing, characterization.
Career Outcomes: Graduates can work in academia, industrial R&D, product development, materials characterization and energy or biomedical sectors. Typical roles include materials scientist, R&D engineer, university faculty and energy storage researcher. Skills apply to government labs, startups, consulting.
The Montana University System announces an exciting new collaborative program offering Montana’s first Ph.D. in Materials Science. The program includes the departments, faculty, courses and research infrastructure of the campuses of the University of Montana, Montana State University, and Montana Tech.
Research specialties are focused in four areas:
- Biomaterials
- Electronic, photonic and magnetic materials
- Materials for energy storage, conversion, and conservation
- Materials synthesis, processing, and fabrication
The curriculum integrates a broad range of physical science and engineering disciplines with an even broader range of applications, from health and medicine to nanotechnology to energy, environment, and natural resources.
