Introduction
The course presents a balanced treatment of descriptive inorganic chemistry that underpins the design and deployment of technological materials. The goal is to be comprehensive, while remaining understandable to students from diverse scientific and engineering backgrounds. This course begins by revising the construction of atoms and their properties, followed by a systematic analysis of reactivity, stability and properties. These concepts are illustrated with reference to important classes of industrial materials.
This course is part of:
- Graduate Certificate in Materials Science and Engineering
- FlexiMasters in Materials Science and Engineering

At the end of the course, learners are able to:
1. Compare and correlate electromagnetic emissions with atomic structure.
2. Explain how polarization, electron affinity and valency determine the relative contribution to bonding characteristics.
3. Describe the characteristics and reactivity of common non-metals and metals.
4. List and analyse non-metal and metal technologies in engineering industry such as thermoelectric, superhard and chalcogenide materials.1. Fundamental Properties and Principles
2. Non-Metallic Materials
3. Metallic Materials
Suitable for professionals working in Engineering, Quality Control, Failure Analysis, Manufacturing and R&D.
