粒子技术工程硕士

化学加工工业中生产的大多数产品要么包含颗粒，要么通过颗粒代理制得。尽管粒子和粒子过程无处不在，但本科工程课程通常无法解决粒子阶段引入的独特问题。通过设计，该程序提供了这一重要的技能和知识基础，这些知识和技术被行业所重视，但是通常无法在一个地方或只有这样的单一焦点才能实现。粒子技术跨越多个长度范围，需要跨越传统学术学科边界的知识和技能。分子长度尺度上的相互作用导致颗粒长度尺度上的材料特性，进而影响宏观长度尺度上的加工单元或基于颗粒的产品的性能。该领域的培训将使学生能够跨化学，机械和土木工程学科以及化学家，物
The majority of products produced in the chemical process industries either include particles or are made through the agency of particles. Despite the ubiquity of particles and particle processes, undergraduate engineering programs typically fail to address the unique issues introduced by the particle phase. By design, this program provides this important skill set and knowledge base, valued by industry but generally unavailable in one place or with such singular focus.Particle technology spans multiple length scales and requires knowledge and skills that cut across the boundaries of traditional academic disciplines. Interactions at the molecular length scale result in material properties at the particle length scale which in turn impact performance of processing units or particle-based products at the macroscopic length scale. Training in this field will enable students to communicate and collaborate across the chemical, mechanical and civil engineering disciplines as well as with chemists, physicists and materials scientists.
