Research carried out in the department covers five main research areas:
- Biomechanics and biomaterials
- Polymer and composite technology
- Mechanical behaviour of metals and ceramics
- Metallic materials forming processes
- Light alloy and surface treatments
Following research groups participate in the Master and provide topics for for Master Thesis: Research Group Biomaterials, Biomechanics and Tissue Engineering: - Biomaterials for bone tissue engineering and bone regeneration
- Metallic biomaterials
- Surface functionalisation of biomaterials for bone, vascular and neural applications
- Calcium phosphate based ceramics and composites
- Injectable biomaterials
