Welcome to
Materials Science Symposium
Materials Science is an emerging and challenging interdisciplinary field to study the structure, properties, processing methods, and applications of materials. Materials science has provoked and contributed to the development of various sustainable materials, smart materials, nanomaterials, biomaterials, metal alloys, ceramics, polymers, composites and design of complicated structures through the innovation of technology by the advancements in the study of materials science. This two-days Symposium, organised by the Chemistry Department, College of Science, University of Bahrain, will bring together academics, instrument manufacturers, materials producers and industries interested in materials and their applications.
Objectives
- Illustrating the scientific principles and applications of materials science to the
scientific community in the academic and
industrial organizations. - Recognizing the international research trends
in the field of materials science. - Raising the awareness of the importance of
developing sustainable materials.
Themes
- Structures and Properties of Materials
- Characterization and Testing of Materials
