DJJ 40343 MATERIAL SCIENCE AND EGNGINEERING SESI 1 2026/2027

Materials Science and Engineering course is an introduction to

students to learn the fundamentals of materials science and

engineering (structure, properties, design and performance). The

key step in engineering process is selection of materials for the

applications. In the course, students will learn about different

classifications of materials, atomic structure and bonding,

materials properties, phase diagram and processes involved to

produce a final product. This includes advanced techniques in

metal fabrications such as powder metallurgy and 3D printing

technology. Students will also learn to analyze the materials

failure in the structure, applications and environments.

Laboratory work will be used to perform the testing techniques

employed by materials engineers to determine the properties and

evaluate the materials tested. In order to cater for Industry 4.0

technology, students will be given case study and examples

based on the current trends in materials and applications.
