Materials engineering (or materials science and engineering) is about the design, testing, processing, and discovery of new materials. Materials engineers will cover the 4 main classes of materials in college including metals, ceramics, polymers, and composites.
Materials engineers can find careers in the aerospace, biomedical, automotive, electronics, and manufacturing sector just to name a few. However, this discipline covers a wide range of sectors and careers because basically everything we use is made out of some material that needs to be optimized.
Note that we can classify materials science and materials engineering as two different fields, but in college (at least in undergrad), your school will likely call it one or the other (or maybe 'materials science and engineering') and you will be in the college of engineering.
Great video! As a MSE student, I just wanted to add that we also study optical properties of materials (through x-ray diffraction and other methods) to determine the physical or crystal structure of materials.
Refractive indicies and photoconductivity are a few examples of optical properties we cover.
Thanks for the comment!
Thank you so much for this video. The best guide to materials engineering I've ever seen
I'm already on my third year of materials engineering :) one more year to go!
İsmail Eken Hi, I'm almost 19 years old... should I go for Materials Science or Engineering??... I really don't know... I prefer the courses on MS but I also know engineering is more worth it, could you give me some pieces of advice?
How did it go? Is it frustrating or is it quite bearable?
Kenvara Solivo its fun... it depends on the teacher... many laboratories too which is nice ♥️ love it
@@Panthera100 good to hear, rn im still in high school and searching for a major, do you have any reccomend for a good major?
How it go?
What a great video. I loved materials science courses that I took for civil, but that was just the beginning of this type of subject. One of my buddies ended up getting his PhD in Materials Engineers and now works to design airplane parts :) Great work man, keep it up, absolutely love the engineering community support videos. You rock!!
Thanks Jake! Glad to keep seeing you here man!
Jake Voorhees GOOD FOR YOUR FRIEND!!😁.
Also I'm "geeking out"RightNow because I've been considering material engineering as my major for 2 years now.
That's awesome !! Materials engineering is sweet. What would be your dream job in materials?
Jake Voorhees - I love metallurgy, and that has always been what I want to do. However I'm also quite interested in polymers as well.
Right, well the two sync up quite nicely! Let me know what engineering student / career questions I can help you with. My channel and 1% Engineer community is all about support to young engineers. Cheers friend! Jake
I am using this video in my high school Materials Science class. I feel that today's students don't really know what Material Engineering actually is and what it studies. The best part of the video for me is that it gives a brief overview of nearly everything that I teach in my course. I truly love teaching my Materials Science class and I really wish other public high schools would offer the course for their students. Thank-you for providing this informational video.
I am recently started a channel if you really interested in material science and material engineering then please subscribe my page_
I wish my school had a materials engineering course!!! I’d love it!!
The way you put things up in this video, you are a star truly.
I have a Bachelor's in Computer Systems Engineering (hardware), and I just submitted my thesis for my master's in Electronic Engineering. My thesis was focused on graphene-oxide, and I have to say that I believe that graphene and graphene-based materials are probably one of the most current interests in the fields of Material Science and Engineering.
Even though we didn't study it that much, material science plays a very huge role in electronics, different material do have different properties and applications in electronics.
The video is very informattive.
Would you mind sharing that thesis
Materials science is arguable the most versatile field, great content and motivational for youngsters :)
Excellent video, MajorPrep. Your ideas are helping me decide on my future. Keep it up.
Very good video. I'm studying Materials Engineering. I'm from Mexico and this career has a lot of potential. I recomend the book Callister Materials Science and Engineering And Introduction 8th Edition. I want to say that there are some classes more especific like microscopy, molecular simulation and related to modern physic like Solid state very useful to understand semiconductors, the basis of our actual technology.
Phenomenal video! Very educational and inspiring. Thank you, sir.
I keep questioning why you're getting way less views than you should, because for me, this is so interesting and inspiring. I'm currently 16 y/o and have a dream to become an engineer someday, just don't know which branch i'd like to pursue my studies in. You're making it much clearer for me, thank you for providing us with such great content!
Thank you so much for the comment! Really glad these are helping you and hope they get you into the right major :)
- vincentz - yeah i have that too just about everything seems fun so it is hard to choose
daan stam how old are you? and which field seems the most compelling to you?
- vincentz - also 16 and civil and aerospace seem to be the most compelling to me at the moment. what do you like the most at the moment.
daan stam currently looking at mechanical and aerospace, maybe civil too. Soo hard to choose, since Sweden only offers one aerospace engineerings class at KTH, it's hard to be accepted.
I loved it!!!!! Thank you for posting it.
Your video is great..Just everything i need to know in greetings the subjects.. Im in electrical engineering and this give me a headache.. But now it seems fun because i know the applied cases.. thank you so much
Probably the best overview of materials engineering on youtube.
My 7th grade teacher sent me this and it helped me a lot to understand what a Material’s engineer is
I was actually so lost in class like why am I doing chemistry in engineering and this helped give me some clarification and peace of mind. Thank you Zach Star
I'm a 3rd year materials and metallurgical engineering student and I'm impressed about this video. Learn more things to add to myself 👍
this video is very helpful for my knowledge to understanding about material engineer. thanks you
Materials are pretty neat. Another fine video man. Now I'm looking forward to taking a materials class this fall.
Thanks Zerthex! Glad you enjoyed it
Yes sir. Really very good explanation. I got some idea about Material science and engineering. Thank you very much!
Great video, I am going into rubber engineering and I love it!
Thanks for the video, I found it pretty useful.
good wow you explain well as one I seen in my life I am a student of aeronautical engineering 2nd year now and you almost give me much information about what i need thnx for help more and keep going
Thanks for the comment!
Nice video... This already open my eyes that mechanical engineering is not only automotive but there are many more branch of it
Thanks for this awesome video man,, just finishing up 7 years of NDI in the Air Force and want to see what this is all about!!
Great information thank you for the video.
Amazing presentation skills!
All of your videos have helped me to choose my undergraduate degree!!!! Thank you and keep up the good work!😊
Have fun, its a neat field
this was so helpful!
this is so helpful thanks!!
Thanks for the comment!
Thank you for this information
Best vid on the topic !!
You are very strong man in teaching. Well done. I need a piece of advice from you if possible. I have an academic (Not engineering) bachelor of physics and Chemistry got in africa, after which I came for a master in materials sciences and engineering in China with specialization in polymer composites structural manufacturing (Big structures) . Now I am likely to do a phD still in China with another lab but in mechanical engineering with specialisation still in polymer composite structural manufacturing (Pressure vessels for hydrogen storage). My problem is my bachelor, actually while applying for some positions abroad after my master I have read very frustracting comments from schools about my bachelor while I was among the best. Indeed, the lack in my country of science teachers makes the deans to ask teachers to increase the difficulties in exams to remove as much students as possible from the system between the first and the fourth year, consequently even those who can move end with average marks between 10/20 to 14/20. Myself I am between 12/20 and 14/20. And I can tell you it is among the best. But for western countries some told me they want at least 15/20 of bachelor grades in basic subjects without even checking the master. I ended with the idea of doing another bachelor degree in mechanical engineering or materials after my phD. Because it seems like in engineering the most important is the bachelor. But I don't know if it is a good idea as I am dealing with scientific papers writing now and tell myself sometimes that my papers will cover me. But I want to enjoy also the high engineering salary in industries but very embarrassed by this bachelor. Please what can you suggest to me. If you think it is a good idea. Which one between mechanical and material engineering will be fine from your view.Thanks
thanks for making this video, pal. greetings.
Thanks so much for the video! Just got accepted into UC Davis for Materials engineering.
You are a genius person
Thanks for this video
Already hit the like button
Thank you so much dude
Very nice and informative video...
I think engineering is a very interesting field in stem, I prefer maths, and more theoretical physics, but I like how broad and growing engineering is
its great video I am working on Not destructive taste NDT Inspection Field I am willing to get a Diploma materials engineering technology but I am not too good in Mat but a I will do my Best as I do on NDT training.I know its quite be a challenge I will do Effort for it.Thanks for Video.
Please post more videos on materials engineering and technology.
can you please make a video on describing metallurgy and material engineering major as one major?
Thanks so much! Like many others here, I'm a young person trying to find out what branch of engineering is best for me, and this video was the biggest help! Interesting, informative, easy to understand, and accessible. I can't thank you enough for these great videos!
Thank you so much for the comment! Really glad it helped and hope the other videos provide even more info for you. Good luck on the search!
Absyrtus heyyy man which branch are you thinking about so far?? Cheers 😁
I'm not sold on anything yet, but probably biomedical or materials... But I really like both aerospace and industrial as well (and electrical a bit too), not to mention I haven't really finished going over each branch. Man, I just think it's all cool, ha! I want to move onto medical school though, so I have to pick something I think I'll be able to keep my GPA really high with. That's mainly why I'm leaning toward biomedical. Materials is the most interesting to me but the job growth there is eh and I'd worry more about my GPA with that... so I gotta pick carefully. How about you man?
Both are great fields. Think about materials engineering with nanotechnology and 3D printing of organic and non-organic parts. Each engineering pathway is exciting right now. I would encourage you to start reaching out to professionals and professors in all of these fields and conduct informational interviews to learn more. Offer to get involved. Volunteer. You generally won't know what you like until you actually try stuff out :) I'd love to help you out more. Ask whatever you like, I'm an engineering student & career mentor. Cheers!
You read my mind, that's exactly what I'm thinking of. Nanotechnology is simply fascinating to me, and materials science feels like a great avenue to that. I'm also interested in anything that flies, and I know that another choice with materials science is to be involved in the manufacturing of airplanes. So materials science feels like a great way to be focused while keeping options open. :)
That aside, I'll be taking your advice; I've spoken to a doctor about my career path to get an idea of what I want out of medicine, but I have only discovered my interest in engineering recently. As such, I haven't yet had the chance to connect with any engineers. I want to do that soon. Thanks for the advice, I checked out your channel and I'll be sure to follow that as well. I can use all the help I can get. :) If you know of any other resources or have any more advice for high schoolers looking for engineering/STEM related volunteer opportunities or for those trying to connect with those already in the engineering field, I'd love to know. Thank you so much!
Great video! I'm gonna take my first materials engineering class this fall!
Thank you and best of luck!
How did it go?
İsmail Eken Hi, I'm almost 19 years old... should I go for Materials Science or Engineering??... I really don't know... I prefer the courses on MS but I also know engineering is more worth it, could you give me some pieces of advice?
I’m on my third year and I’m interested to specialize with nanotechnology on my higher education, I think it’s pretty fun to study.
Great video!
Thank you!
im interested in studying Material Engineering,but in my country it is a very underrated science,i want to know if this field has future and working chances in Europe
I believe that Europe and the US both have a lot of good jobs for materials engineering
This is gold
I am a materials Engg Graduate and this is spot on and very well structured.
What is it like as a material engg graduate?
Awesome video !
Thank you!
Thank you
if material engineering were a game. metals would be the regular enemies, there are many but no need to worry and composites would be the final boss comes out of nowhere and suddenly beats you up.
Thanks 🙏
Great video
Thank,s for intersting and informative video (-:
I have one question !!
Is their any website or app to descripe the proparity of the material you want ----> to list it for you.
#thanks again .
Thank you very much man, i absolutely love your videos, and i really appreciate your hard work. Do you mind if i share this video?
Thanks man! Really appreciate the comment. And absolutely don't mind! The more people watch it the better.
Great information I'm pursuing my bachelor's in SCTLM and was wondering if material engineering would be a good master's degree to pursue. Thanks in advance.👍
thank you teacher
Excellent
Great Video but Sir pls make a video in Production Engineering
I am seriously considering applying for materials engineering given what the course entails, that said I don't know if the courses and career implications here in the Philippines align with those in the US. My amateur knowledge of things like the titanium in the SR-71, the ablative heat shield on re-entry vehicles, the composites used in armored vehicles, the advantages of stainless steel over carbon fiber in things like starship, and other things really got me into it. The applicability of physics and chemistry to these real-world technologies inspired me to dig deeper, but not being sure with what the journey is like so I've no idea if this is the path best suited to my capabilities.
You could go for a masters in the US, I'm from India and that's what a lot of people here tend to do.
I'm in my 2nd year in mechanical engineering undergrad, but my ultimate dream is to work on aerospace applications.
And currently I just got offered to work on an advanced Composite materials research project under one of my lab professors, so that's really exciting.
And overall I feel that Materials Engineering might be the way to go for me, as it's applications in designing aircraft and spacecraft components are integral.
I'm retired and looking for something worthwhile to do. Is there a certificate program on Material Engineering that does not require prerequisites?
As a mechanical engineer I have taken all these classes and more
You good sir are doing gods work I nearly picked chemical engineering cause I thought that's what this was called you saved my life
Marty Draught I made this mistake :/ idk what to do now :(
Jamie Rowland - did y’all not do research tho? I’ve known the differences since middle school.. oh wait I’m a nerd....
I would like to combine this with informatics, like for e apple using IA yo design better materials, but i don't know which corse to take, im also tempted by EE and ME, what do you think
Thanks
As a chemical engineer we have studied some of the subjects of material engineering and in future I am going for my masters and PhD in this field
Congratulations 🎉my friend and good luck
Which major do you think was more difficult: chemical engineering, or material engineering.
My son is just entering HS in a tech engineering pathway and has been talking about material engineering for a year. This will really help him get a summary view of the subject. Thanks
Sir,Can we join silicon steel(electrical steel)and pure silicon rod using bolting.will it withstand rotating torque like in rotor part of motor.l need it's information for my research please give reply
Great video! What is the possibility to study PhD in materials science and engineering with chemistry background?? I’m almost done with my chemistry bachelors but idk if I need more physics and math background instead of chemistry.
My work is in nanomaterials such as graphene. I think the development of nanomaterials are the future of materials science and engineering.
How can i get into nanomaterials?
I'd suggest finding a lab at a university or an industrial firm which works with nanomaterials. Graphene is the favourite, but also consider ZnO or MoS2. You've got lots of options.
Personally, I work with gold nanoparticles and graphene. I can't say I've enjoyed anything else nearly as much.
Aku how much do nanomaterial employees earn per year?
I'm an undergrad student, meaning I only make about $500 a week. In industry, you'd probably look at a usual six figure salary.
how long does it take to get whatever degree is required to work on nanotechnology? how much math is involved? is the materials engineering industry in general healthy jobwise?
do you know of any videos on youtube that give you a laymans introduction to the field?
whatre the prospects for someone entering the field at the age of 30? answers would be greatly appreciated.
hey, great video! Could you also make a video about Systems & Control Engineering?
Thank you! And that's on my list of majors to get!
MajorPrep Nice, thanks a lot! I'm looking forward to it!
how much does this overlap with chemical engineering? both can develop new materials right ?
Want to know this answer I upload a video on this topic soon_
Material engineering was always my most hated subject. Didn't know it can be that fascinating!
Every time I see one of these videos pop up I'm glad I chose to be a metalurgical engineer. 2 years of school left!
This was my dream...I'm currently in my 4th year of a CHEMICAL ENGINEERING degree... It was my only option at this school... Now instead I spent years studying pipes, pumps and flows... I hope I can still find a job in this field after I graduate with a ChE degree lol.
Trust me they exist, you could always attend grad school as well
İsmail Eken Hi, I'm almost 19 years old... should I go for Materials Science or Engineering??... I really don't know... I prefer the courses on MS but I also know engineering is more worth it, could you give me some pieces of advice?
Can you make a video about IT and IS majors
Hello Sry for my english.
What is the most close engineer to Physics?. I want to study Physics in the University but I can't take it in my city and there is almost zero jobs in my country for Physics so I'm trying to pick a engineer like Mechanic or Materials or another.
Wich do you recomend as the most close to Phisycs?
Thanks
where does diamond,CVD and HPHT come into material engineering?
nice video
Great video, especially for people wanting to ingress or to change to engineering. Do you plan on making a video of metallurgical engineering ? Or maybe comparing material and metallurgical engineering ? It would be of immense help.
YellowRayquaza22 from what i've known, i would say that the main difference of material and metallurgy engineering is that metallurgy is more of a process engineering where they mainly study about processing raw materials into pure ones, but material engineering is more about studying how to make the pure materials rather useful and applicable bye combining them, or heating them, or many other processes.
If we can magliff a train or levitate it why can we not build our own space saucers and use levitation and gyroscopes to use it in navigation?
Could someone tell me what about biological/organic materials. As someone who comes from natural sciences, and wants to make shift towards engineering, im interested to find out in which scientific discipline are they covered. Ist it perhaps biotech or something else?
hey how do u make these videos? thanks
@MajorPrep QUSTION, If materials engineering design structures with certain properties then the engineer knows both of the structure and the properties which means there is no need to materials scientist , I don't get it, please explain
Can I get on material science if I was a chemistry major?
Can you do one for architecture?
Yes definitely will get one on architecture at some point
At 9:11, how can something go bakward in time in a graph, havent you exchanged time with temperature?
Are you referring to the red and green curves? Cause those aren't what is changing in time. Those are simply the phase changes that occur IF you go through them while cooling something.
What is the difference between Metallurgical engineering and materials engineering?
I want to thank you for making these videos, but I have a question. If you could tell your 18 year old self everything you know now, what would you have majored in?
If I knew everything I know now when I was 18 I may have majored in physics simply because I love the subject so much. The difficulty for me with picking a major was I loved too many things and just couldn't decide. But at the same time I know I would need further education which I would not have wanted to pay for at the time. Definitely loved EE though but really enjoy physics (and math) as well and if I go to get my master's that's what I will probably do.
Edit: I also would've minored in math
NDT Career is the best for mechanical engineers
Very interesting and illustrative but how metal-polymer can make proper composite interface to avoid mechanical and thermal problem is expected
is it true that material science and engineering deals with quantum physics, particle physics, and solid state physics !!
İsmail Eken Hi, I'm almost 19 years old... should I go for Materials Science or Engineering??... I really don't know... I prefer the courses on MS but I also know engineering is more worth it, could you give me some pieces of advice?
Yes, firstly is based on Solid Physics!
@@ismo11 hocam sana nerden ulaşabilirim
@İsmail Eken thanks for your answer, in the end I got into Chemical/material engineering. Here in Italy in material science there is a lot more of chemistry and physics courses (also quantum stuff at the bachelor), while in engineering more mathematics/algebra, thermodynamic, ecc
@@ismo11 x
Sir tysm
Great vid! How good and also how difficult would you say Material Engineering is when paired up with Applied Physics?
Thanks! And actually that's exactly what one of the guys who helped me with our physics video did (kind of). He got a bachelor's in physics then his master's in materials science. It seemed like a good combination especially if what you want to do relates to both of those.
I m a geography hons. Student and as a geography student, one has to learn about all elements present on earth and also that include a great deal of chemisy, so I thought that this has something to do with my course. Now, I can't do material engineering course, but if I do a diploma in this, how is this going to help me In my geography career.
What are the fields of study in environmental science?
What is the minimum IB requirement for material engineering?
usually about 36
