Careers in Material Engineering
Materials engineers develop, process, and test materials used to create all sorts of products, including aircraft wings, snow skis, computer chips, and more. In this field, you could work with ceramics, semiconductors, or plastics to construct new materials. You might also study materials at their atomic level, then reproduce them with computers. Most people working in material engineering typically specialize in one specific material.

Career Training: Online and College Degrees for Materials Engineers
College degrees are the typical minimum educational requirement; materials engineers traditionally need a bachelor's degree for entry-level jobs and a graduate degree for more advanced jobs and research positions. Some online and college degree programs focus on industrial practices, while others emphasize the theoretical aspects of engineering. This means you need to research your chosen program carefully to ensure it's the right one for you. Some even offer a 5-year master's degree option.

To prepare for any material engineering degrees, you should take courses in mathematics, science, and the humanities. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, material engineers earned a median salary of $81,820 in 2008.
