The Advanced Materials Analysis and Characterization (AMAC) program is a 15-month long curriculum combining two quarters of intensive on-campus coursework with an internship component, culminating in a Master of Science degree in chemistry. The program requires 54 total credits: 26 graded credits and 28 research internship credits.
The Center for Advanced Materials Characterization in Oregon (CAMCOR) operates this hands-on program, providing students with technical training on cutting-edge, major research instrumentation used in a variety of fields.
Techniques covered include:
- Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)
- SEM-FIB Microscopy (DB-FIB)
- X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS)
- Time-of-flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS)
- Electron Probe Micro Analyzer (EPMA)
This program provides graduate students with the analytical skills they will need for careers in industrial research laboratories and other technology companies.
