• MSE 3410: Intro To Polymers

  3.00 Credits

  University of Utah

  
  This course will provide an overview of polymer materials. It is intended as a first course in polymers for students with a background in material science, chemistry, or general engineering. The emphasis of the course will be on the use of polymer materials as engineering materials. After a brief study of the molecular structure of polymers and the general structure of polymeric solids, the course will then emphasize applications of polymers. At the end of the course, the student should have a wide appreciation of the ways polymers can be used, why and how certain polymers are selected for certain applications, and how polymers are formed or processed into something useful. Prerequisites: 'C-' or better in CHEM 2310 OR CHEM 2311

• MSE 5061: Research Internship

  3.00 Credits

  University of Utah

  
  This course will allow students to earn academic credit for the successful completion of a Materials Science and Engineering-related internship in a research lab. To have an internship fulfill a Technical Elective requirement, students must earn a total of 3 credit hours and complete research assignments as encouraged by the faculty mentor. The internship progress will be monitored, evaluated, and graded by the research faculty mentor. Students must take an active role in finding and applying for an appropriate internship before enrolling for the course.
