Established in 1990, Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering prepares professionals currently in three major industrial areas: Materials Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Engineering.
Master studies are structured in four areas: Advanced Materials and techniques for experimental analysis (MAT), advances in materials engineering processing (TAIPM), both in the area of Materials Engineering; Systems Technology Industry (SITM) and engineering safety and health (ISSM), (Industrial Engineering area).
The doctoral school in MATERIALS ENGINEERING area covers all aspects of research in this domain, starting with surface engineering and developing new materials and process optimization.
