Materials Engineering is a focus area of the Materials and Manufacturing Engineering master’s at DTU’s Lyngby Campus. According to the parent programme page, it deals with metals, polymers, ceramics and composites, with a focus on performance, durability and sustainability. The degree is project-based, with independent work and multidisciplinary teamwork, and it integrates data analysis and digital methods. The focus area page itself could not be read, so this text relies on the parent programme page and is closely linked to Manufacturing Engineering within the same degree.
