A day in the life of a Materials Scientist 🔎

Meet Mengnan 👋
In our latest day in the life video, Mengnan Wang, Research Postgraduate student in the group of Professor Magda Titirici, shares her typical day in the departments of Materials and Chemical Engineering.
Mengnan's PhD project is related to developing fuel cells that use the chemical energy of hydrogen or other fuels to cleanly and efficiently produce electricity.

Thank you for posting this! I’m currently considering applying for a Material Science and Engineering PhD program, and videos like these are really helping me get a better Idea of what I may actually be doing day to day.

Good job! I am also working in the field of materials science, but a more traditional polymer science field. It is still quite a promising and interesting area, and it is really great to advertise the area.

What I do everyday in the Lab, but I am a first year PhD Chemistry student focusing on water electrolysis, metal air batteries, and fuel cells

Interesting. Is there chemistry classes in materials science?

Also are you not required to wear a lab coat?
