Materials engineers play key roles in the production of primary materials, the processing of materials and the manufacture of final products. They are revolutionizing almost every facet of society by creating lighter, stronger and more flexible materials than ever before. The University of Alberta is the only university in Western Canada to offer a Materials Engineering program. An integral part of the Faculty of Engineering for almost 40 years, the program’s solid reputation keeps our graduates in demand across Canada and around the world in industries such as energy, biology, medicine and communications.
