Thank you for your interest in Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) program.
The Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) is designed to equip and motivate future researchers and academics of engineering and sustainable materials with the advanced knowledge and skills they require to address society’s infrastructure needs for today and tomorrow.
The program is delivered by the College of Arts and Sciences in collaboration with the College of Engineering and the College of Architecture, Art and Design, and focuses on four multidisciplinary research areas, including advanced materials, materials for energy and environment, structures, and analytical and computational modeling and simulation.
The program admits both part-time and full-time students. Competitive assistantships are available for qualified full-time students.
For admission to Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering, an applicant must hold a master’s degree in Materials Science or Materials Engineering from an independently accredited university recognized by the UAE Ministry of Education’s Higher Education Affairs Division and by AUS with a minimum cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of 3.0 (on a scale of 4.0) or its equivalent (Applicants with non- Materials Science or Materials Engineering master degrees may be considered on a case-by-case basis and will be required to take the following bridging courses.
Candidates with a Bachelor’s degree from an accredited university with a minimum CGPA of 3.5 (on a scale of 4.0) can apply for direct admission (without a Master’s degree) to the program.
Applicants with a relevant master’s or bachelor’s degree but not in materials science or materials engineering could be required to complete the following bridging courses:
• MSE 500 Fundamentals of Materials Science and Engineering
• MSE 510 Thermodynamics in Materials Science and Engineering
Students admitted with a bachelor’s degree are required to complete the following bridging courses:
• NGN 500 Advanced Engineering Mathematics or its equivalent
• NGN 509 Computational Methods for Engineering or its equivalent
The bridging courses do not generate credit hours towards completion of the degree program graduation.
