The future society needs more durable, lightweight and environmentally friendly materials. Essentially all products of our society comprise materials, and therefore also the most significant challenges of our society are somehow related to materials. Just to give some examples; we need lightweight and strong structures to minimize the emission of land and air transportation. We need sustainable and recyclable food packaging, and we should increase the share of bio-based and sustainable raw materials. Also, many applications require highly functional materials: in arctic locations wind turbines require non-freezing surfaces, and new battery materials need to be long-lasting.
Materials science studies the production of different structural and functional materials, their consistency and structure, technical properties, and industrial applications. At Tampere University, you become a material scientist who has a strong knowledge of natural sciences combined with material science. This combined with your passion for developing new material solutions makes you a competitive expert for a wide range of industries.
