Graduate Areas of Concentration

Chemistry, chemical engineering, civil engineering, electrical and computer engineering, forest products, mathematics, mechanical engineering, nuclear engineering, physics

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

Reflecting this characteristic, the Materials Science Program at Oregon State University, initiated in the 1980s, is distributed over nine departments spanning three OSU colleges. This allows students to earn MS and PhD degrees in Materials Science in many different areas of concentration, including all classes of materials, and in a wide range 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.
