Specialties for Materials Science and Engineering implement a training model called ‘Training in a Large Category’, focusing on the establishment of a generous discipline knowledge basis, enhancing foundation, broadening professionals and laying emphasis on practicing. Metallic Materials Engineering, Materials Forming and Controlling Engineering, Functional Materials, Materials Physics and Metallic Materials Engineering for Japanese are included.
The program of ‘Training in a Large Category’ is carried out in the first and second school years, and there is a professional spilt-flow which bases on students’ intension and overall band score in the third school year. Students of Metallic Materials Engineering for Japanese would be trained on the basis of large category, and students are supposed to master Japanese and English, and the length of schooling is five years.
Metallic Materials Engineering
The major is comprehensive undergraduate major reformed by nation and Liaoning Province, which ranked first in the first profession comprehensive evaluation organized by Department of education of Liaoning Province, and was identified as first advanced undergraduate specialty in universities and colleges by Department of education of Liaoning Province.
Senior engineering and technical/management talents with humanities accomplishment and innovative spirit are developed for social and economic construction, and they master basic theory of Materials Science and Engineering and expertise of Metallic Materials Engineering.
