Materials Science

• Small classes, individual attention.
• Opportunities to work one-on-one with faculty in materials science research.
• Opportunities to use excellent on-campus state-of-the-art materials science facilities including instrumentation housed in the Materials Science Center (www.uwec.edu/matsci). Instrumentation includes: a transmission electron microscope, a scanning electron microscope, an x-ray photoelectron spectrometer, a scanning tunneling electron microscope, atomic force microscopes, a high resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer, x-ray diffractometer, x-ray fluorescence spectrometer and a molecular beam epitaxial growth chamber.
• Students have summer research opportunities at UW-Eau Claire and other locations across the United States.
