Materials Science and Engineering, the production methods, properties and characterisation related with design and application of both traditional and advanced technological materials have been thought to students, apart from the general engineering lectures consisting of all the theoretical knowledge. The undergraduate program of Materials Science and Engineering offers educational courses on the subjects such as materials processing, physical and mechanical properties of materials, high temperature behaviour, crystallography, x-rays, high technological materials, electronic materials, phase diagrams, raw materials, thermodynamics, design and selection of materials. In the department, each lecturer and assistant has an individual computer connected to network in their room, and students can also have opportunity to access to the network in their own computer laboratories for world-wide communication.

The duration of education in Department of Materials Science and Engineering is four years, apart from one-year language preparation school. The language during the whole education period is English for the undergraduate students. Students must complete a summer training practice of at least 60 working-days in related industrial branches. After graduation, materials engineers have the opportunity to find a job in many fields such as from metal to aircraft industry, from ceramic sector to electronic division, from polymer/plastic industry to automotive production, including the research and development divisions in institutes and universities.
