Materials
Science in the High School
Recently,
one of the emerging "hot areas" of scientific research and
technical innovation has been in the field of materials science. The
goal of this project is the help students make connections between
their coursework in biology, chemistry and physics and new developments
in materials science.
Students utilize
modern research applications, such as high temperature superconductivity
and stochiometry. Studying new developments in materials science gives
students examples of how chemistry is applicable in research today.
