Ceramic Engineering is the branch of Engineering that deals with creating an object from inorganic and non-metallic materials. Ceramic engineering is the study of how to create objects from inorganic, non-metallic materials, either by the action of heat, or at low temperatures using precipitation reactions from high purity chemical solutions. Ceramic materials have many special and unique characteristics that are used in materials engineering, electrical engineering, In simple terms, ceramic engineers are material science professionals, who focus on ceramics. Ceramic engineering is the science and technology of creating objects from inorganic, non-metallic materials. This is done either by the action of heat, or at lower temperatures using precipitation reactions from high-purity chemical solutions. Engineering ceramics are based primarily on pure oxides, carbides, or nitrides. Of these the most important compounds are alumina, Al2O3, silicon carbide, SiC. Ceramic engineers produce materials vital to many advanced and traditional technologies: electronic and optical assemblies, aerospace parts, biomedical fields.
