The academic excellence and entrepreneurial spirit of Stanford Materials Science
and Engineering (MSE) brings together physical metallurgy, ceramics, and
the physics and chemistry of solids and is extended to students in industry
through courses and programs delivered online and on campus by the Stanford
Center for Professional Development.

Graduate
degree study can be undertaken on a part-time basis through the SCPD Honors
Cooperative Program (HCP). Students must be admitted as Stanford University
graduate students through the regular admissions process. The MSE master’s
degree may be completed only by attending classes on campus.
If you want to update or refresh your skills in an area, or get a “first-taste” in
a new discipline, SCPD offers graduate courses through the Non
Degree Option (NDO).
You may take individual
courses or
earn a graduate certificate through successful completion of three courses

When a full-length graduate course is more than you need and more than
you can fit into your schedule, SCPD offers a growing portfolio of short-term,
intensive learning experiences delivered in ways that meet the needs
of busy professionals and managers.
Novel Materials for Extending
Moore’s Law
An exploration of new materials for continuing
the dimensional scaling of MOS devices. Stanford University Campus, August
22-25
Nanoscience and Nanotechnology
Online Seminars
Learn from Stanford faculty and industry experts the fundamentals of nanoscience and nanotechnology with potentially significant impact for the materials, manufacturing, semiconductor electronics, photonics, data storage and life science industries.
Strategic Decision and Risk Management
Learn to make effective critical decisions to increase shareholder value.

Online Seminars
SCPD makes it possible for the public to view a series of thought-provoking
seminars on a broad range of topics such as “Entrepreneurial Thought
Leaders” and “Design and Manufacturing Forum”. Listen to
and learn from visionaries such as Donald Knuth, “Computer Musings”,
and many more.
The Department of Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) is concerned with the relation between the structure and properties of materials, factors that control the internal structure of solids, and processes for altering the structure and properties of solids. It brings together in a unified discipline the development in physical metallurgy, ceramics, and the physics and chemistry of solids. Research is done in interdisciplinary teams within the department and in collaboration with engineers and scientists from other departments at Stanford and institutions outside Stanford University.
Research areas include:
- Electronic Materials
- Magnetic Materials
- Optical and Photonic Materials
- Mechanical Behavior of Materials
- Biological Materials
- Materials for Energy and Environmental Applications
- Organic and Polymeric Materials
- Advanced Characterization
- Thin-film Deposition
- Nanopatterning
- Computational Materials Science
- Bulk Crystal Growth
- Shape Deposition Manufacturing
The MSE faculty has been well represented in awards granted by The Global Climate and Energy Project to research the use of hydrogen as an energy carrier.
