The Graduate Program in Materials Science and Engineering of Federal University of Paran\u00e1 (UFPR), also known by the acronym PIPE, is a multidisciplinary program which offers graduate degrees of Master of Science (MsC)\u00a0 and\u00a0 Doctor of Science in Materials Science and Engineering. The Master’s degree requires a maximum of 2 years study and a written research dissertation. The doctorate requires a maximum of 4 years study and written research thesis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nprogram\u2019s objective is to promote collaborations between different areas,\nmainly Physics, Chemistry, and Engineering, using a multidisciplinary research\napproach for the advancement of science and technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To\nface the demands and challenges of modern industry, PIPE offers educational and\nresearch programs that follow current trends in novel and advanced materials,\nas well as in synthesis, design and operation methodology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are 5 main lines\nof research:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Biomaterials and Applications: <\/strong>development and characterization of\nbiomaterials and its uses in biomedicine, ranging from ceramics, metals,\npolymers, composites and nanostructured materials. Research involves surface\ntreatments, biocompatibility and bioactive response studies, osseointegration\nanalysis, mechanical, physical and chemical properties characterization. <\/li>
  2. Renewable and Non-renewable energy systems: <\/strong>study and characterization of materials\nfor fuel cells, batteries and for energy harvesting.<\/li>
  3. Engineering Materials: <\/strong>study and development of general purpose engineering materials, ranging\nfrom mechanical, electrical and chemical engineering sectors. Current research\nincludes metals, polymers, composite materials, and ceramics. Thermal, electrical,\nmagnetic and optical properties, as well as aging and degradation of materials are\nof interest.<\/li>
  4. Materials Properties Modeling and Simulation: <\/strong>Thermal, mechanical, electric, magnetic\nand optical properties of materials are modeled using (quantum mechanical)\nfirst principles or phenomenological models, aiming for a deep level\ncomprehension and\/or for materials properties optimization.<\/li>
  5. Thin Films, Interfaces and Surface Technologies: <\/strong>Research involves thin film and surface production\nand characterization, aiming its potential uses in Engineering. Theoretical and\nexperimental studies are conducted in order to elucidate the role of\ndimensionality and nanostructure organization on both physical and chemical\nproperties, surface stability and interfacial aspects.<\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
