Course Introduction

Course Objectives: This course aims to provide students with opportunities to interact with accomplished researchers, while gaining insights into the frontier developments, existing challenges, major topics, and future trends in the field of materials science. It also seeks to help students understand the unique characteristics of materials research and to learn from the researchers’ passion for science, perseverance, and rigorous attitude.

Course Foundation: The course will invite distinguished domestic and international experts, as well as scholars who have made significant contributions in materials science and related fields, to present their work and the latest developments across various subfields of materials science. In addition, Ph.D. students will be asked to give thematic reviews (seminars). The reports will cover topics such as recent research progress at home and abroad, literature-based lectures, and introductions to new technologies and research findings.
