University of Surrey Hosts Introduction to Composite Materials Science Short Course

The Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences at the University of Surrey cordially invites students and professionals to attend the course "Introduction to Composite Materials Science" to be held at the University of Surrey, Guildford, UK between 5 - 9 November 2007.

The course aims to provide a comprehensive introduction to the science and technology of engineering composite materials.

This is a 5 day intensive residential short course covering the essential concepts and practices of Composite Materials. The course is designed for those with no previous formal introduction to the science of composites and no prior knowledge or experience is assumed. All topics will be introduced from first principles and the emphasis will be on developing an understanding of concepts rather than a detailed review of current practice. The course consists of a mix of lectures (three days) and laboratory and exercise classes (two days).

Students will develop an understanding of the relationship between the constituents of a range of composite materials and composite properties. Students will be aware of important design considerations, processing technologies and test methods, leading to an understanding of the relationship between composite design, fabrication and performance..

Introduction to Composite Materials Science is part of the Advanced Materials Programme: a range of eighteen short courses which may be taken individually or from which seven may be selected and linked together with assessments and a project, to form a modular MSc Degree programme.
