The field of materials science and engineering is changing quickly and Cornell Engineering is leading the way. We use an integrated approach and apply a "break the rules" attitude to help solve some of the world's most pressing problems... The Department of Materials Science and Engineering has been pushing the limits of materials science since the day the department was founded fifty years ago and in so doing we defy conventional wisdom and discover new truths. Our engineers have been at the leading edge of developments in the field since the 1960s and remain there today. We were the first to grow a single layer of graphene and determine its structure; we were the first to achieve pressures in the laboratory exceeding those at the center of the Earth; and our research into polymer-clay nanocomposites laid the foundation for a new industry... Our departmental vision is to foster the individual growth of our talented and creative students so that they may then continue to push the..
