Engineering, Faculty of

Course Code: CHE 2501 and CHE 2506

Course Description:

CHE 2501 covers principles relating the properties and behaviour of engineering materials to their structure, including atomic bonding forces, strength of interatomic and intermolecular bonding forces, atomic arrangements in solids, structural imperfections, and atom movements in solids. It also discusses principles of phase diagrams and their application to multiphase materials, with particular reference to the iron-carbon system, as well as mechanical and electrical properties of engineering materials, including semiconductors, polymers, and ceramics.

CHE 2506 involves laboratory experiments that illustrate the behaviour of materials and other concepts covered in CHE 2501.

Qualifications:

Graduate degree or equivalent experience required.

Responsibilities:

The successful candidate will teach both CHE 2501 General Materials Science and CHE 2506 Materials Science Laboratory in the Summer term.
