09-826 Special Topics in Polymer Chemistry: Mechanical Behavior of Polymers

12 units, Carnegie Mellon University

This course is a graduate level course designed to prepare students for graduate research in polymer science. Based around a laboratory component, students will learn the lab skills needed to synthesize and fully characterize novel polymer materials. The classroom component will teach the theory behind the measurements made in lab, as well as an understanding of the best experiments to learn about the properties of the material. Emphasis will be placed on current literature and technical communication written and oral.

Prerequisites: 09-220 or 09-218
