Students will be performing dissertation research under the guidance of the student’s doctoral dissertation advisor. This will involve performing literature search, writing proposal for the research, and conducting research in the laboratories. At the end of the course, students will present the findings of the research to the committee and prepare a dissertation for approval by the dissertation committee.Offered for variable credit, 1-9 credit hours, maximum of 60 credit hours.Prerequisite(s): Graduate standing and permission of instructor.

Composites are important for advancing performance and reliability of existing and new products for aerospace, electronics, and medical systems. This course is to introduce fundamental concepts for the design, fabrication and mechanical property evaluation of composites. This includes methods of fabricating fibers, matrices and composites, toughening mechanisms in composites, mechanical properties, and role of interfaces. The focus will be for composites useful at high temperatures.Prerequisite(s): Graduate standing and permission of instructor.
