Ceramics
Ceramics

• This field spans four broad areas of surface engineering; coatings; wear and electrochemical corrosion. The research group applies or adapts spectroscopic and microscopic electrochemical techniques to study the interfacial processes of metallic materials exposed to aqueous solutions relevant for the applications. The coatings investigated include metallic, ceramic and polymeric coatings and methods such as plasma electrolytic coatings.

Materials Characterization and Selection (Metallurgy)

• The field of study spans research areas of physical and mechanical metallurgy; fatigue of materials and fracture mechanics; solidification and casting, welding and manufacturing, simulation in materials science and advanced materials.

Mine Exploitation
Mine Exploitation

The Division of Mineral exploitation of Tarbiat Modares University has been established with the aim of creating a comprehensive educational and research center for postgraduate studies. This division includes two fields; mine exploitation and mining economics and management. For the first time in Iran, the master's degree in mining economics and management was launched in this university. The admission of students in the master's fields of the mine exploitation and mining economics and management started in 1999 and 2005, respectively. With more than two decades of history, the division is ranked 44th in the 2023 Shanghai rankings.

Mineral Processing
Mineral Processing

Mineral processing, is the art of processing ores and mineral products in order to separate the valuable minerals from the waste rock, or gangue. It is the first process that most ores endure after mining to provide a more concentrated material for the procedures of extractive metallurgy. In Iran some other countries, this field also covers hydrometallurgy and electrometallurgy while in the rest of the world is enclosed in extractive metallurgy. Pyrometallurgy is usually under extractive metallurgy field of research and industry.

Nano Materials
Nano Materials

• The Nanomaterials group is part of the Materials Engineering Department at TMU. Our research is focused on nanoscale phenomena and synthesis of high purity nanomaterials with excellent physical, chemical and electronic properties suitable for applications in different field of engineering.

Rocks Mechanics
Rocks Mechanics

Our Department of Rock Mechanics has been a leading institution in research and education in the field of rock mechanics for over three decades. We are dedicated to understanding the physical and mechanical behavior of rocks and rock masses and applying this knowledge to tackle challenges in civil and environmental engineering.
