BS Polymer Materials Engineering

... United States
... Western Washington University

Course Overview

Students enrolled in Western’s Polymer Materials Engineering (PME) program study the relationship between molecular structure, processing, and properties of polymers and composites. The PME curriculum prepares graduates who understand and apply established scientific and engineering knowledge to support engineering activities in manufacturing environments. The technical curriculum is built upon a firm base of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and materials science. Practical experience in design, materials, processing, economics, testing, characterization, and analysis is a crucial part of the hands-on curriculum that is provided in the program’s extensive and well-equipped laboratory facilities.

A polymer materials engineer can be involved in the development, design analysis, planning, supervision, or construction of the materials, methods, and equipment for the production of industrial or consumer goods in the plastics or composites industry. The PME graduate will help to solve the complex problems associated with plastics or composites manufacturing operations. PME graduates work in teams with engineers, scientists, and technicians to solve manufacturing-related problems.
