Engineering Materials PhD
University of Surrey · Guildford, United Kingdom
About this programme
The study of engineering materials bridges the gap between the physical sciences, where understanding of atomic and molecular phenomena helps explain fundamental behaviours, and engineering structures, where practical applications of such phenomena are realised. It gives you the chance to explore cutting-edge science to make new discoveries.
