Paper Description

Edit Paper Description Content

This course will allow students, at an advanced level, to experience the concept of Materials Science/Engineering. The emphasis, where possible, will be relevant to New Zealand conditions and will reflect the increasing demand required by industry in areas such as microstructure modification, new materials, fabrication techniques and engineering materials.

The learning outcomes for this paper are linked to Washington Accord graduate attributes WA1-WA11. Explanation of the graduate attributes can be found at: https://www.ieagreements.org/assets/Uploads/Documents/IEA-Graduate-Attributes-and-Professional-Competencies-2021.1-Sept-2021.pdf"

Paper Structure

Edit Paper Structure Content

This paper is taught through lectures on the Hamilton campus, online content, and practical labs, where practical, in-person participation in the on-campus activities (Lectures and Laboratories) is strongly encouraged.

Video recordings of lectures will be made available for those not attending on-campus (Online versions of other paper activities can be made available case-by-case basis or in the event of another Lockdown)

Practicals: The laboratory experiment schedule to be announced during week 2.

Laboratory work forms a very important part of the Materials 2 paper and competition of laboratory activities is compulsory.

Important Note for International Students: For international students in New Zealand under student visas, regular attendance is part of your visa obligation and is checked as a requirement on the University under the Code of Practice for the Pastoral Care of International Students, to which the University is a signatory. Academic staff are formally required to monitor attendance in classes and submission of compulsory assessment events/items and to report to Waikato International in the event that any problem with irregular attendance or non-submission is not resolved.

Assessment

Edit Assessments Content

This paper facilitates the development of technical writing, an important competency expected of a scientist and engineer. Learning outcomes will be assessed by means of a combination of tests, laboratory reports and a final exam.

Samples of your work may be required as part of the Engineering New Zealand accreditation process for BE(Hons) degrees. Any samples taken will have the student name and ID redacted. If you do not want samples of your work collected then please email the engineering administrator, Natalie Shaw (natalie.shaw@waikato.ac.nz), to opt out.
