Engineering Materials
In the stream of Materials Science and Engineering, we deal with solid
materials that we humans extract or make. These materials have
certain predefined properties which could be controlled through
processing or synthesis condition.
This group of materials is known as Engineering Materials. For
example, metals, ceramics, polymers are engineering materials.
