CX Program in Corrosion and Materials Degradation

Introduction

This interdisciplinary concentration provides the students with the required fundamental understanding of electrochemical corrosion engineering and materials degradation. Students are exposed to topics such as corrosion types and mechanisms, and materials’ degradation. Furthermore, it also equips students with the ability to use numerical and analytical techniques to predict and evaluate corrosion phenomena to develop sound corrosion management plans. In addition, it promotes interdisciplinary education where materials science and engineering intersect with chemistry, mathematics, and other engineering disciplines. The applications of this concentration are wide-ranging and include oil and gas industries, petrochemical industries, desalination plants, and constructions.
