Physical Engineering of Materials

about the programme

This follow-up master’s programme combines materials physics, applied mechanics, and computational modelling. Emphasis is placed on analyzing material behaviour under stress, structural failure, and the development of new technologies. Students acquire knowledge in physical metallurgy, elastomechanics, fracture mechanics, and both experimental and numerical methods. Individual projects, often connected to research, are an integral part of the programme.

programme content

Students will attend core courses focused on:

  • physical metallurgy,
  • fracture mechanics,
  • nondestructive diagnostics.

career prospects

Graduates find employment in research institutes, development centres, and industry, for example in power engineering, transportation, or mechanical engineering. Thanks to their interdisciplinary knowledge, analytical thinking, and experience in presenting results, graduates are well qualified for leadership positions, including in an international environment.
