Introduction
This course introduces learners to the processing and processability of polymers, focusing on how polymer properties impact product performance. Learners will explore the role of additives such as fillers and stabilisers, and how these influence the characteristics of polymer materials. The course equips learners with the knowledge to link material properties to manufacturing methods, enabling them to design, select, and customise polymers for various applications. Learners will gain practical skills applicable in materials selection, process design and optimisation, product development, and procurement—making it ideal for those interested in modern materials and polymer manufacturing technologies.This course is credit-bearing (3AU) and stackable to:
- Graduate Certificate in Materials Science and Engineering (9 AU)
- FlexiMasters in Materials Science and Engineering (15 AU)
- Master of Science in Materials Science and Engineering (30 AU)
Learners will receive their Statement of Accomplishment (for a grade of D and above) or Certificate of Participation for each course—dependent upon their assessment performance.
As the micro-credential courses are only offered in this FlexiMasters in Materials Science and Engineering programme, learners are required to enrol into this programme and complete all required courses within this programme.
Suitable for professionals working in Engineering, Quality Control, Failure Analysis, Manufacturing and Research and Development.
