Organization
The Schools of Chemical Engineering (coordinating), Applied Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Mining Engineering and Metallurgy, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Civil Engineering, Architecture, Mechanical Engineering, Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering, from the National Technical University of Athens that participate in the Interdisciplinary Postgraduate Program “Materials Science and Technology” (http://mse.ntua.gr/?lang=el) call for applicants for the MSc Program in the academic year 2025-2026.
The MSc Program “Materials Science and Technology” has been included at the internationalization project of NTUA postgraduate studies [project “Support of internationalization actions of the postgraduate studies of the National Technical University of Athens” co-financed by the Greek State and the European Union (European Social Fund) through the Operational Program “Human Resources Development, Education and Lifelong Learning”], with the aim to promote study opportunities for students from all over the world. In this context, the language of instruction will be English.
Program Goals
This MSc program aims to train Engineers and Scientists of other disciplines on conventional and advanced materials. This sector is a very important part of the world economy (encompassing both large- and small- scale industries etc.) and supports the development of other technological and financial activities (like energy sector, building and construction etc.). The overall aim is to prepare the students for either employment in the relevant industry or in the research field, with an internationally competitive specialization.
Program structure
The program has a minimum duration of three (3) academic semesters and a maximum study period of four (4) semesters, it corresponds to a total of 90 ECTS credits and leads to Postgraduate Diploma in Master of Science (MSc). During the first two Semesters students attend mandatory and elective courses. The third semester is dedicated in the Master thesis which is written in English. The elective courses are divided in two Flows, i.e. Flow A: Materials Science and Flow B: Materials Technology. Flow A focusses on “Synthesis – Structure – Properties – Applications” of Materials, while Flow B focusses on the technological aspects of these disciplines. Lecture attendance is mandatory.
