Materials Science & Processing Training – Mastering Technical Foundations for Mechanical Engineers

Course Introduction

In modern industry, understanding materials and processing technology is a key factor enabling engineers to design and manufacture durable, efficient, and cost-effective products. The “Materials Science & Processing Training” course, taught directly by lecturers from Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HCMUT – VNU-HCM), is the ideal choice for engineers, technical specialists, and students in mechanical engineering and materials science.

Training Objectives

• Equip foundational knowledge of material structures, phase diagrams, physical-mechanical properties, and heat treatment processes.
• Understand the structure-property-processing relationships to select appropriate materials.
• Learn to read and analyze material drawings, technical standards, and heat treatment specifications.
• Enhance the capability to evaluate and control material quality in manufacturing and mechanical machining.

Training Content

• Theory: 48 periods – Covering topics from crystal structures and physico-mechanical properties to international standards.
• Practice: 24 periods – Experiments determining mechanical properties, heat treatment of real samples, phase transformation analysis, material identification, etc.

Key Highlights

• High-Quality Instructors: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nguyen Thanh Hai – HCMUT, an expert in materials and heat treatment.
• International Standard Curriculum: Applying materials from W.D. Callister, ASTM, ISO.
• Integrated Hands-on Practice: Helping trainees master analysis and application skills.

Who Should Attend?

• Mechanical, metallurgical, and materials engineers working in factories and manufacturing companies.
• Engineering students looking to equip themselves with in-depth knowledge.
