Research & Internships

Get a Head Start on Your Career

An education at the University of Arizona in materials science and engineering prepares you for success after graduation. Jump-start your career with internships, design projects and research.

Pivotal Internships

All College of Engineering students are strongly encouraged to complete at least one industry internship – many of which are paid – typically for course credit.

Visit the UA Engineering website for extensive information about the college’s internship program and tips for landing your dream job. 

Exceptional Design Projects

The UA Engineering Design Program is crucial to your career readiness. This yearlong experience helps ensure you are ready for the workplace and opens doors to employers.

MSE seniors work on teams with students from other engineering disciplines creating real-world models and products, some of which are patented and commercialized, for industry and academic clients.

Present your project at Design Day – arguably the most exciting college event of the year, besides to graduation. Impress industry partners, see how professional engineers rate your work, and win prizes and public recognition.

Exciting Research Opportunities

Work in the lab with esteemed faculty and dedicated graduate students on MSE research experimenting with materials such as organic polymers for wearable bioelectronics and high-temperature ceramics for hypersonic flight.

Join a faculty project or start your own via the University of Arizona’s undergraduate research opportunities.
