    The University Master in Materials Science & Engineering aims to provide a complete, advanced and specialized training in the area of the materials and associated technologies.

    The study of this master is designed to bring their students knowledge and competences that allow them to be original for developing and/or applying ideas for solving problems related to design, manufacturing, characterization and in-service performance of materials. Its main objective is preparing its students for generating new knowledge and applying the existing one to solve the high amount of problems that nowadays restrict the economic development and condition the sustainability of the industry.

    Thus, for instance, the postgraduated students will be ready to find different kinds of job opportunities, as at research centers and at companies related to industrial sectors like automotive (manufacturers as well as service), aerospace, metal-mechanical, bioengineering or energy.
