### Calendar Description

[An introduction to the science of materials relating their mechanical,
thermal, electronic, and chemical properties to atomic, molecular, and
crystal structure. Ceramic and metallic crystals, glasses, polymers, and
composite materials. Multi-phase materials, phase transformations, and
strengthening processes. Laboratories and seminars include mechanical
properties of materials, microstructure, heat treatment of steel, and
hands on design experiments. Prerequisite: CHEM 105 or consent of
Department.]{.mark}

### Course Objectives & General Content

At the conclusion of the course, the student shall be able to
demonstrate knowledge in tasks dealing with:

-Declarative knowledge -- the what: Proper use of relevant vocabulary;
definitions; magnitudes of constants

-Procedural knowledge -- the how: Correct methods of solving problems

-Conditional knowledge -- the when: Application of theory and problem
solving methods to different situations

-Reflective learning -- the why: Ability to explain how theoretical
concepts apply to observations and behavior

Assessment will be through written communication, calculations, and
application of concepts to common and new situations.

Knowledge is defined as having the ability to perform the above tasks to
solve relevant problems that agree with expert opinion (i.e., a level of
competence). The use of appropriate language and terminology is also
necessary.

### Learning Outcomes

By the end of this course, students should be able to:

1\. Recall terminologies and magnitudes of constants, fundamental to the
field of Materials Science, and demonstrate their knowledge through
proper usage.

2\. Describe different types of bonding, classify materials, and relate
the mechanical thermal, electronic and chemical properties of materials
to their atomic, molecular, and crystal structures.

3\. Relate materials\' elastic-plastic deformation to applied stress,
understand the behavior of common defects, and steps to strengthen
materials by controlling defects,

4\. Describe various processing of metals, alloys, and choose pertinent
processes for desired characteristics, using the concepts of diffusion,
microstructure, and phase transformation.

5\. Predict microstructure and properties of materials based on phase
diagrams/phase transformations, and design processing of materials,
including heat treatment processes, using the knowledge of TTT and CCT
curves.

6\. Inspect, analyze, and diagnose corrosion-related problems, and
resolve them through recommending proactive and preventive measures.

7\. Describe the basics of polymers and ceramics, and identify the
structure-property relation of polymeric and ceramic products in
engineering.

Be familiar with laboratory methods for measuring mechanical properties,
microstructure, heat treatment of steels, and corrosion.
