Rutgers' Graduate Program in Ceramic Science and Engineering offers courses of study that lead to the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. The program emphasizes the fundamental aspects of material behavior, with a particular emphasis on ceramics.

Students may pursue M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in ceramic and materials science. In this option, the thesis work emphasizes the fundamental aspects of ceramic-material behavior.

Alternatively, students can arrange M.S. and Ph.D. programs in ceramic and materials engineering. Here, the thesis focuses on engineering and developmental aspects of materials. Students with full-time jobs in industry can arrange master's degree programs without a thesis, which they take full time or part time. The curriculum includes business and industrial engineering courses.

The facilities of the program include approximately 25,000 square feet of well-equipped laboratories. Students have access to the department's equipment.

The Graduate Program offers many different possible areas of specialization and study in Ceramic Science and Engineering.

The Graduate Program in Ceramic Science and Engineering has a challenging and exciting series of courses. The requirements for graduation and qualifying are are listed in the Graduate Student Handbook.

Fellowships and tuition benefits are available to all first year graduate students and most students.

Students also can join the Graduate Students Association that aims to enrich the social, cultural, and academic lives of all the graduate students in the department.
