Materials engineering field looks into relationships between properties of materials and their mechanical structure at atomic level. This field also deals with practical application of material when the main factors of that are its properties, chemical structure, final form. Materials engineering has supportive areas as thermodynamics, mechanics, nanosciences , etc. Graduates gain understanding in behaviors and properties of various substances, from raw materials and designed products. They are employed by companies whose products are manufactured of ceramics, metal, rubber, plastic, etc.
Steel is the most important material for structural applications, where the demands on material and production processes increase continuously concerning properties, costs and eco-friendliness.
This innovating program will take place in Grenoble in collaboration with EPFL Lausanne and Politecnico di Torino. Nanotechnology is an emerging domain of engineering and science, at the interface between Physics, Biology and Chemistry, leading to several innovations in the area of Material and Electronics engineering.
The automobile is as important today as ever, and with that comes ever more increasing demands, most notably that concerning alternative fuels and the impact of automobiles on the environment.
The joint activity will begin with a six-day advanced international summer school followed by a five-day international research conference. The summer school intends to provide the participating students and young researchers with the necessary background knowledge for the focused research topics. The lectures for the summer school will be given by a number of distinguished researchers from the world in the focused research fields above. Additionally, assignments and discussion sessions offered by the lecturers or spontaneously organized by the students are expected to help all participants better their understanding of the lectured materials.
