Paper Description

Edit Paper Description Content

This course will allow students at an advanced level, to experience the concept of Materials Science/Engineering. The emphasis, where possible, will be relevant to New Zealand conditions and will reflect the increasing demand required by industry in areas such as microstructure modification, new materials, fabrication techniques and engineering materials.

Paper Structure

Edit Paper Structure Content

This paper is taught through Lectures and Practical labs.

Practicals: Six 3 hour sessions run with a maximum of one per week - schedule to be announced during week 1. First practical session to be held in the week starting 16th July.

IMPORTANT NOTE for students - Laboratory Handbook

Please collect the Laboratory Handbook required for this paper, from the Waikato Print Shop during the first week of teaching. A printing fee is charged to the student on collection of the handbook.

Laboratory work forms a very important part of the Materials 2 paper and attendance at laboratory sessions is compulsory.

Important Note for International Students: For international students in New Zealand under student visas, regular attendance is part of your visa obligation and is checked as a requirement on the University under the Code of Practice for the Pastoral Care of International Students, to which the University is a signatory. Academic staff are formally required to monitor attendance in classes and submission of compulsory assessment events/items and to report to Waikato International in the event that any problem with irregular attendance or non-submission is not resolved.
