The Materials Science Program at UNH offers research opportunities in areas of science and engineering that cross traditional departmental boundaries, with an emphasis on synthesis and characterization of nanoscale materials. We offer M.S. and Ph.D. degree programs that provide our students with expertise in specific fields of materials science and also expose them to a broad range of research topics. Students learn about the interplay of structure, processing, characterization, and properties of materials with useful applications. Our fourteen faculty members are active collaborators with research and development groups both locally and internationally, and are experienced in managing research projects with practical results. Graduates of the Materials Science Program are working in research, engineering and process development positions in a variety of fields. We welcome inquiries from students and potential collaborators interested in the materials science resources at UNH.
