Our alumni help us continually improve the materials engineering program. Their generosity comes in the form of guest lectures, donations, job opportunities, and projects for students to learn by doing. Several alumni serve on our External Advisory Board (EAB).

Partners

Industry partners, parents, our advisory board, and other friends of Materials Engineering are also valuable contributors to what makes our program great. Many 4th year MATEs working on their senior projects collaborate with industry partners. Advisory board members provide input that supports our continuous improvement.

We thank you for your continued involvement and investment in our future!
