The Bachelor of Science in Materials Science and Engineering program aims to develop an understanding of the structure, properties, processing, and service behavior of engineering materials, including metallic, ceramic, polymeric, and composite materials. This understanding fosters both the development of new materials and the improvement of existing materials in order to optimize manufactured products.
Laboratory experience is an important part of the program and emphasizes microstructural characterization using modern analytical techniques, such as optical and electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction, materials processing, determination of the physical and mechanical behavior of materials, and materials and process selection.
Program Overview
Students will learn the fundamentals of creating new materials and developing processes to improve existing materials, building on skills to make innovations in materials science and engineering for improved materials and solutions to technological, societal, and environmental problems.
The B.S. in materials science and engineering degree is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET.

Illinois Tech has several of its own competitive scholarship programs that are open to both undergraduate and graduate students. All domestic undergraduate first-year and transfer students are automatically considered for scholarships that cover a generous portion of expenses such as tuition. Graduate students in select degree programs also may be considered for additional special scholarships, beyond any fellowships that they may receive.
Optional Practical Training or OPT is a period during which students, who have completed their degrees in the USA, are permitted to work for one year on a student visa by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). OPT allows students to work for up to 3 years and develop real-world skills to survive in the competitive jobs market.
It is temporary employment for a period of 12-months that is directly related to the major area of study of an F-1 student. Eligible students have the option to apply for OPT employment authorization before completing their academic studies and/or after completing their academic studies.
A student can participate in three types of Optional Practical Training (OPT):
