Graduate Certificate in High Temperature Materials

Materials used in the “hot zones” of propulsion and power generation systems must satisfy stringent demands for integrity and performance.  Materials exposed to these extreme environments exhibit continuously evolving microstructures and this must be accounted for during the component design stage of production.

Rensselaer at Hartford offers a Graduate Certificate in High Temperature Materials designed to provide an understanding of the properties of high temperature alloys as well as skills in improving those properties by manipulating the material microstructure through processing.

Academic credit earned from these courses can then be applied towards a master’s degree.

Please contact Professor Ernesto Gutierrez-Miravete at gutiee@rpi.edu if you have any questions about the Graduate Certificate in High Temperature Materials program.
