About the School of Materials Science & Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology

Founded in 1985 by combining the former School of Ceramic Engineering with the Metallurgy Program housed in the School of Chemical Engineering, MSE merged in 2010 with the School of Polymer, Textile and Fiber Engineering, established in 1897 as the Textile Engineering program, the third school at GT. Today, MSE at GT is fully integrated and unified, with diverse academic and research programs spanning all forms and classes of materials.

The School of Materials Science and Engineering is built as a holistic, innovative, and modern materials science and engineering program that has the environment, infrastructure, and culture of creativity, curiosity, entrepreneurship, innovation, and inclusion. Our research portfolio addresses a multitude of functionalities, from structural load-bearing applications to energy storage and harvesting; and electronic, photonic, and opto-electronic devices to drug delivery and mimicking nature; and developing sustainable processing approaches to machine learning and in-situ structure characterization for materials discovery. As a world leader in educating the next generation of materials scientists and engineers, MSE at GT is defining the future of our discipline through academic excellence, experiential learning, and research innovations, with the focus on envisioning, predicting, designing, and developing materials to meet tomorrow's challenges in energy, environment, health and human welfare, infrastructure, security, and transportation.
