The discipline of materials science is inherently interdisciplinary, involving fundamental aspects of engineering, chemistry, physics, biology, geoscience, and mathematics.

Reflecting this characteristic, the Materials Science Program at Oregon State University, initiated in the 1980s, involves over 60 tenured and tenure-track faculty members spanning the OSU Colleges of Engineering, Science and Forestry. This allows students to earn MS and PhD degrees in Materials Science in many different areas of concentration, including all classes of materials over a wide spectrum of materials behavior.

The course work requirements are extremely flexible to allow students to tailor their program of study to directly support their research activities.
