The opportunities and challenges for our graduates are limitless. Preparing our students for a productive and rewarding career is our primary mission. Our faculty takes pride in their teaching skills and ability to present clear understandable lecture and laboratory courses. We are eager to assist you so that your undergraduate experience is productive and enjoyable. The Department is over 100 years old (founded in 1902) and we have a long and proud history. Our alums are involved in all aspects of materials and have risen to the highest positions in industry and academia. They are engineers, executives, researchers, professors as well as professionals in law, business, management and medicine. Their careers are in all phases of materials, including ceramics, metals, polymers, semiconductors and composites. And, as will occur to many of you, career paths often wander away from your core area of education to exciting new areas of industry, commerce, and academia. Our curriculum is exciting and diverse in its character. You will study the chemistry and physics of materials and have ample opportunity to hone your laboratory skills. You will study the essential elements of materials processing processing, structure, and characterization of many types of materials, and you will have the opportunity to focus your studies in cutting edge technologies such as nanomaterials, photonic and optical materials, and electronic materials. We are pleased you have chosen to study under the MSE faculty and to become a member of our Department. Please do not hesitate to contact me or any other member of the faculty for assistance during your academic career in MSE. Sincerely, Richard L.

The present School of Engineering became a separate entity in 1914 and continues to maintain two principal objectives: the sound technical and cultural education of the student and the advancement of knowledge through research. The School of Engineering has designed each of its engineering curricula to contain three types of courses; (1) courses covering the basic scientific principles essential to advanced study in any field of science or engineering; (2) nontechnical courses which, with the basic sciences, are a part of the common heritage of educated persons; and (3) technical courses in which the basic scientific principles are applied to problems in a particular engineering field. Throughout all courses, the emphasis is on a thorough understanding of fundamental principles and engineering methods of analysis and reasoning. All curricula are sufficiently comprehensive to form a foundation for the more advanced scientific and technical research, the more specialized professional engineering fields, or the business and management opportunities of industry. In any curriculum, students receive a sound education in the fundamental principles, which helps them develop competence in their engineering fields. The basic nature of the courses and the mental discipline of modern engineering education constitute excellent preparation for a satisfying career, even in fields of endeavor other than engineering. ACADEMIC PROGRAMS WITHIN THE SCHOOL Four-year undergraduate curricula leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science are offered in the fields of applied sciences in engineering, bioenvironmental engineering, biomedical engineering, chemical & biochemical engineering, civil & environmental engineering, electrical & computer engineering, industrial engineering, materials science and engineering, and mechanical & aerospace engineering. Several areas of specialization are available within these disciplines, such as, solid-state electronics, packaging engineering, and engineering physics. A five-year, dual-degree program is offered by the School of Engineering in cooperation with three liberal arts colleges in New Brunswick: Douglass College, Livingston College, and Rutgers College. This program leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in any of the engineering fields listed above (except applied sciences in engineering) and a Bachelor of Arts degree from the cooperating liberal arts college in any major in which that college confers the B.A. degree.

Received: 23 February 2019; Accepted: 10 March 2019; Published: 14 March 2019 Abstract: Conducting polymers (CPs) have attracted significant attention in a variety of research fields, particularly in biomedical engineering, because of the ease in controlling their morphology, their high chemical and environmental stability, and their biocompatibility, as well as their unique optical and electrical properties. In particular, the electrical properties of CPs can be simply tuned over the full range from insulator to metal via a doping process, such as chemical, electrochemical, charge injection, and photo-doping. Over the past few decades, remarkable progress has been made in biomedical research including biosensors, tissue engineering, artificial muscles, and drug delivery, as CPs have been utilized as a key component in these fields. In this article, we review CPs from the perspective of biomedical engineering. Specifically, representative biomedical applications of CPs are briefly summarized: biosensors, tissue engineering, artificial muscles, and drug delivery.

    Glossary of Materials Engineering Terminology

    Glossary of Materials Engineering Terminology Adapted from: Callister, W. D.; Rethwisch, D. G. Materials Science and Engineering: An Introduction, 8th ed.; John Wiley & Sons, Inc.: Hoboken, NJ, 2010. McCrum, N. G.; Buckley, C. P.; Bucknall, C. B. Principles of Polymer Engineering, 2nd ed.; Oxford University Press: New York, NY, 1997. Brittle fracture: fracture that occurs by rapid crack formation and propagation through the material, without any appreciable deformation prior to failure. Crazing: a common response of plastics to an applied load, typically involving the formation of an opaque banded region within transparent plastic; at the microscale, the craze region is a collection of nanoscale, stress-induced voids and load-bearing fibrils within the material’s structure; craze regions commonly occur at or near a propagating crack in the material. Ductile fracture: a mode of material failure that is accompanied by extensive permanent deformation of the material. Ductility: a measure of a material’s ability to undergo appreciable permanent deformation before fracture; ductile materials (including many metals and plastics) typically display a greater amount of strain or total elongation before fracture compared to non-ductile materials (such as most ceramics). Elastic modulus: a measure of a material’s stiffness; quantified as a ratio of stress to strain prior to the yield point and reported in units of Pascals (Pa); for a material deformed in tension, this is referred to as a Young’s modulus. Engineering strain: the change in gauge length of a specimen in the direction of the applied load divided by its original gauge length; strain is typically unit-less and frequently reported as a percentage.

Gomes*, J.S. Godinho, D. Tchalamov, A.M. Cunha, R.L. Reis Department of Polymer Engineering, University of Minho, Campus de Gualtar, 4710-057 Braga, Portugal Abstract An ideal tissue engineering scaffold must be designed from a polymer with an adequate degradation rate. The processing technique must allow for the preparation of 3-D scaffolds with controlled porosity and adequate pore sizes, as well as tissue matching mechanical properties and an appropriate biological response. This communication revises recent work that has been developed in our laboratories with the aim of producing 3-D polymeric structures (from starch-based blends) with adequate properties to be used as scaffolds for bone tissue engineering applications. Several processing methodologies were originally developed and optimised. Some of these methodologies were based on conventional melt-based processing routes, such as extrusion using blowing agents (BA) and compression moulding (combined with particulate leaching). Other developed technologies included solvent casting and particle leaching and an innovative in situ polymerization method. By means of using the described methodologies, it is possible to tailor the properties of the different scaffolds, namely their degradation, morphology and mechanical properties, for several applications in tissue engineering. Furthermore, the processing methodologies (including the blowing agents used in the melt-based technologies) described above do not affect the biocompatible behaviour of starch-based polymers.
