Nanomaterials
Nanotechnology is a major focus at The University of Texas at Austin, with more than 100 faculty involved. The Nanomaterials focus within the graduate program in Materials Science and Engineering offers a powerful opportunity for multidisciplinary research by fostering collaborations across eight academic departments ranging from chemistry to mechanical engineering.
The multidisciplinary nanomaterials program is focused on the study of matter at dimensions of roughly 1 to 100 nanometers. Nanomaterials are currently used in a wide array of applications including in bumpers on cars, paints, and coatings to protect against corrosion, protective and glare-reducing coatings for eyeglasses and cars, sunscreens and cosmetics, automotive catalytic converters, tennis balls and more.

Clean Energy Materials
Rapid depletion of fossil fuels and growing environmental concerns make energy one of the greatest challenges facing humankind in the 21st century. The Clean Energy Materials area is focused on the design and development of high performance materials for alternative energy technologies and developing a fundamental understanding of their structure-property-performance relationships. The research activities include materials design, chemical synthesis, nanomaterials, advanced materials characterization, prototype energy storage/conversion device fabrication and evaluation, and computational modeling of materials and processes
