This course will expose the students to fundamental knowledge of Engineering Ceramics with the use of specially processed materials such as Carbides, Nitrides, Silicides, Cermets and Composites. Students will learn development of ceramics as used in advanced applications as such in the areas of Nuclear energy, Magneto-hydrodynamic generation, Gas turbine blades, Abrasives, Aerospace, Diesel engines, Heat exchangers, Cutting tools, and Wear applications. Other areas to be covered are Ceramics for Medical and Scientific products, Ceramics for optical and dental applications, Ceramics in Electrochemical cells, Ceramic substrates, Ceramic Insulators, Ceramic Capacitor, Dielectrics, Piezoelectric Ceramics, Electro-optic Ceramics and Devices, Magnetic Ceramics, Ceramic Superconductors and Nano Ceramics.

Industrial design programme emphasizes learning the skills and techniques of design and production tools, such as the drawing board and drawing instruments. This course is an introduction to drawing tools and equipment. The use of lines and angles, circumscribing circles, construction of polygons, polyhedrons, and eclipses. Principles of tangency, isometric and oblique projections, section views. Emphasis is based on development and application of technical drawings to solve design problems.

Set projects on industrial glass furnaces in Nigeria, furnaces for container glass, both regenerative and recuperative. Day tank furnaces. sheet glass furnaces; Auxiliary furnaces burners machine parts and tools. Forming machines and moulds.

The engages in Rudimentary technical drawing skills and hones practice in computer software introduced in FAA 231 and 232. Basic knowledge and applications of software for 2-D design and modelling will be the focus. Students are encouraged to explore the digital platform’s inherent potential to produce design sketches and diagrams for execution in metals and jewellery. Such sketches will be transferred to 3-Dimensional digital modelling skills and 3D animation techniques; introductory learning about contemporary 3-D design modelling and animation will also be engaged.

One hour of seminar per week. Seminar Program has been designed to provide new students with the opportunity to explore an intellectual topic with a faculty member in a small-seminar setting.
