Master in Materials Science and Technology, Master's Programme (2 years), Lappeenranta

At Lappeenranta-Lahti University of Technology LUT, applications close 2026-01-21; tuition costs 17,523 USD per year.

The Master's Programme in Materials Science and Technology provides solid grounding in materials from the perspective of current research and engineering practice. The curriculum covers materials science and its sub-areas — including advanced metallic materials, ceramics, carbon-based materials, polymers and biopolymers, and minerals — and takes into account the size effects of materials at macro, micro, and nano scales. The programme integrates materials science with production engineering, applying knowledge through project courses carried out in close cooperation with Finnish and international industries. This combination of material knowledge and engineering qualifications is the programme's defining structural feature. Students may also apply their learning to related areas in mechanical engineering, including sustainable manufacturing technologies and construction engineering. The two-year programme begins in September 2026 and is offered at Lappeenranta-Lahti University of Technology LUT in Lappeenranta.
