材料工程基础

The course will guide the student to gain key knowledge on materials, including fundamental topics of chemical bonding, crystal structure and defect, diffusion, phase diagram, materials properties and applications, etc. In addition, the course covers information of types of materials, such as metals, ceramics, polymers and semiconductors, as well as their applications. Through this course, the undergraduates will grasp the basic knowledge for material research and application, understand the relationship of processing, structures, properties and performance. The course will also develop the students’ capability in selection and application of materials in product design and manufacturing process. This module is aimed at enabling students to learn fundamentals of materials and the methods of selecting materials for engineering design by project-based learning. Through design-driven approach, the student will connect the knowledge with application while working on projects.For Year-2 students.
