Graduate Certificate in Materials Engineering

Enable industry's material progress

Investment in the advanced materials market is expanding the world over-in the space industry, medical technologies, defence, manufacturing, energy, telecommunications and more. Engineering professionals able to support materials innovation are in high demand.

Our Graduate Certificate of Materials Engineering will equip you with high-level knowledge at the real-world interface between materials engineering, chemistry and physics.

The industry-driven content is delivered over six months full-time, through a flexible blend of online and intensive face-to-face learning; and if you're currently employed full-time and looking to upskill, you can make the study fit you by taking courses individually or combined.

You will:

• work in the University's state-of-the-art engineering research labs
• have access to cutting-edge on-campus research and development facilities
• work alongside world-class materials engineering researchers-including from the University of Adelaide Centre for Materials in Energy and Catalysis, and the ARC Research Hub for Graphene Enabled Industry Transformation.

You'll also be able to take courses in your chosen specialisation: Energy; Quantum; or Optical.

You might work with industry partners to develop wide bandgap semiconductors for portable disinfection devices. You could help create a highly insulative, anticorrosive and hydrophobic coating for submarines. Perhaps you'll synthesise a sustainable substitute for rare-earth elements in mobile phones. You may even wish to continue your studies in a materials engineering graduate diploma or master's degree.

Limited Commonwealth Supported Places are available in Semester 1 and 2 2021 only.
