Why Study Materials Science and Engineering?
• To be able to select a material for a given use based on considerations of cost and performance.
• To understand the limits of materials and the change of their properties with use.
• To be able to create a new material that will have some desirable properties.
Modern Material＇s Needs
• Engine efficiency increases at high temperatures: requires high temperature structural materials
• Use of nuclear energy requires solving problem with residues, or advances in nuclear waste processing.
• Hypersonic flight requires materials that are light, strong and resist high temperatures.
• Optical communications require optical fibers that absorb light negligibly.
• Civil construction – materials for unbreakable windows.
• Structures: materials that are strong like metals and resist corrosion like plastics.Why Study Materials Science and Engineering?

材料科學主要為探討與研究材料構造、特性與製程間之關係；材料工程則注重材料應用知識，其以材料科學之本質為基礎來設計或管理材料之結構，以製成預定之性質，本課程規畫介紹材料之結構、性質、性能與製程等四部份間之關係。
