Bachelor in Materials Science and Engineering

Materials Science and Engineering studies the structure, properties, processing, and performance of materials such as metals, ceramics, polymers, and composites. Coursework typically covers materials chemistry, crystallography, mechanical behavior of materials, thermodynamics, materials processing and manufacturing, and characterization techniques, alongside physics and chemistry foundations. Students conduct laboratory work examining how a material's internal structure determines its properties, and how processing methods can be used to tailor materials for specific applications. Graduates find roles in industries such as aerospace, automotive, electronics, energy, and manufacturing, working on tasks including materials selection, quality testing, and the development of new materials for specific engineering needs. The discipline also connects with nanotechnology and sustainable materials research, where new material formulations address performance and environmental goals. This bachelor's program is taught in English over 4 years at Eskişehir Technical University, located in Eskişehir, Turkey. The English-medium instruction allows students to build technical fluency in English while studying core materials science subjects across the four-year curriculum. Eskişehir, a university city in northwestern Turkey, hosts the engineering faculty delivering this course of study, providing laboratory facilities used throughout the bachelor's degree program.
