General description and relevant information The contents of the matter are based on introducing the basic concepts of Science and Engineering of Materials. First, the basics fundamentals of Materials Science will be introduced. Then, the principal types of materials with engineering applications are presented. After that, the physical properties that confers to the materials their useful characteristics are described. Following to the physical properties, an introduction to the structure of materials, especially to crystalline and non-crystalline solids will be given. Finally, three additional subjects are proposed, from a practical nature, in which the degradation of the materials, the possibilities of recuperation, reuse and reduction of materials, and the process of materials and their characterization will be analyzed.
