Welcome back for 2022-23

MSE is poised for our biggest year yet, extending on an unprecedented 11 point jump in our national program ranking last year, record research funding (>$50M in current grants), faculty and students in key leadership roles across the campus (including the University President!), major awards like our student-led NASA Big Idea Challenge team, and many others. And best of all, we are moving into the newest building on campus by January (Science One). There’s never been a better time to engage with our students, faculty, and staff.

Materials science and engineering majors develop the materials that make the technologies we use in our everyday lives better. READ MORE.
