Materials science and engineering is arguably the most important engineering discipline today. Materials have always been important to the advance of civilization: entire eras are named for them. Today we demand more from our materials than mechanical strength - electrical, optical, and magnetic properties, for example, are crucial for many applications. People are always looking for new materials to make life easier, safer, and more efficient. For example race cars, provide the greatest possible degree of safety thanks to high-performance composite materials – like carbon fibre-reinforced, glass fibre-reinforced and aramide fibre-reinforced materials.
