The Ph.D. program in the Science of Advanced Materials builds on successful research programs of faculty from several departments in the College of Science and Technology (CST) to provide students with a strong, interdisciplinary foundation in the science of advanced materials, with training in current techniques for the predictive modeling of new materials, their synthesis, and their characterization. It addresses a growing need in Michigan and across the U.S. for workers with training in advanced materials research.
