Research at Materials Science and Engineering

KTH is recognised for its world leading research in the materials sciences. Materials Science and Engineering's expertise is in metals, ceramics and sustainable materials.

Students in the lab

Research covers the materials tetrahedron Processes – Structures – Properties, with Materials Characterisation and modelling being integral parts of our hostic approach. MSE has capabilities to model and characterise materials at multiple length scales - from atoms, molecules to grains and meso-structures.

Research initiatives

MSE's research activites are often organised within centres and larger intiatives. We also take the scientific led in developing laboratories at KTH and for Sweden. Some examples are below.

Research units

MSE's research units also conduct research within their respective focal area - utilising and further developing deep expertise on specific aspects of the materials science discipline.
