This unit is an introductory course in engineering materials. The unit aims to develop students' understanding of the mechanical properties, manufacture, and corrosion and degradation of a range of engineering materials, including metals and alloys, ceramics, polymers, and composites. The unit has no prerequisite subject and is therefore intended for those with little or no previous background in engineering materials. However, the unit does require students to take a significant degree of independent responsibility for developing their own background knowledge of materials and their properties.
