Further your understanding of materials science and engineering (MSE) on this four-year Masters degree.<br/><br/>Youll assess how technological advances relating to materials are helping transform our lives, from the clothes we wear through to emerging, life-chasing technologies.<br/><br/>Youll investigate how the motivation to invent or improve materials can solve problems in areas including healthcare and transport.<br/><br/>Youll also consider the latest innovations in fields such as biomedical engineering, robotics and quantum computing.<br/><br/>This course will help you engage with both the scientific and engineering aspects of the discipline as you learn about the processing and performance of materials.<br/><br/>Experimental work in a laboratory setting is designed to help you build practical experience of key materials research techniques.<br/><br/>This includes the opportunity to design your own experiments and carry out investigations using electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction.<br/><br/>Youll then start to specialise across a series of optional modules during your third and fourth years.<br/><br/>Your final year will see your studies reach Masters level, with your work culminating in an individual research project.<br/><br/>This work can be carried out externally or with a laboratory overseas as you build your research expertise alongside world-leading academics and researchers.<br/><br/>The common structure of the first two years of our Materials degrees means that transfer between courses is usually possible during this time. If you are an international student, transferring to a different course could have an impact on your visa, but our International Student Support Team are here to help advise and support you. <br/><br/>**Professional accreditation**<br/>This degree is professionally accredited by the IOM3 (The Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining) on behalf of the Engineering Council. As well as your main Imperial degree, you will also receive the award of the Associateship of the Royal School of Mines on completion of this course.
