Materials engineers create new materials and improve existing materials. Everything is limited by the materials that are used to produce it. Materials engineers understand the relationship between the properties of a material and its internal structure — from the macro level down to the atomic level. The better the materials, the better the end result — it’s as simple as that.

Abstract

Professors and students at Iowa State University are developing a unique flexible modular concept for promoting undergraduate education in powder processing. The approach consists of developing computer-based course modules in specialized processes, which emphasize application and industrial practice before designing model experiments and exploring fundamental concepts. Several such modules are being developed with emphasis on ceramic and metal powder processing.
