) does not have a “materials subgroup” within it. In DMSE, materials is the “main group,” and mechanics isa subgroup. Similarly, DMSE students are strong in the materials aspects of engineering, but perhaps weaker inaspects of stress analysis and mechanical design. Materials graduates need competence in mechanics in order todesign correctly with their carefully developed materials, and some materials departments address this need byrequiring a traditional Mechanics of Materials subject taught by one of the structurally-oriented departments(typically Mechanical, Civil, Aerospace, or Applied Mechanics). If the connection between the mechanics subjectand the materials curriculum is unclear, the mechanics subject then becomes the academic
