Course Description
Metallurgical research in Cambridge started in the nineteenth century with the work of Heycock and Neville on phase-diagram determination. Other highlights include the work of UR Evans on corrosion, RB Nicholson on precipitation hardening, A Kelly on composite mechanics, RWK Honeycombe on steels, and the many contributions of A Cottrell. Our current work covers a very wide range of materials and ranges from creating new ones to improving existing ones.

Course Fees
Composition fees for 2008/09: £3,320 (full time UK/EU). All courses will incur an additional College fee of £2,090. For part-time research degrees (PhD, MSc, MLitt), the fee is 60% per annum of the full-time fee, for both the University Composition and College Fees. The Composition Fees for the MPhil in Economics and the MPhil in Finance will be £7,175 for Home/EU students; for the MPhil in Management and the MPhil in Technology Policy the Composition Fees will be £12,219 for Home/EU students. Staff undertaking research pay one third of 'Home' students' fees. Figures have been indicated for yearlong courses (those courses running for less than one year will be charged on a pro rata basis) & are liable to change. If you undertake a course involving abnormally expensive laboratory materials, you may be expected to contribute towards the cost of your research (in addition to the University Composition and College Fees). It is recommended that applicants refer to the Board of Graduate Studies website for up to date details before applying.
