The Faculty of Polymer Engineering (FPE) at Sahand University of Technology (SUT) is the second faculty of its type all over the universities around the country. FPE officially opened and started to its individual activities since Aug. 23 2008 therefore is considered as a young academic unit. The history of the existing faculty goes back to 1996 when the main core of the polymer engineering was established in the faculty of chemical engineering. The first students in the field of Polymer Engineering were entered to SUT in 2005. In spite of to FPE’s age it has been able to obtain a rich reputation. FPE is now counted among the pioneering faculties at SUT in terms of publishing scientific articles contribution to international conferences performing research projects filing patents distinguished researchers and educating students. FPE admit only post graduate students master degree and Ph.D. and its educational programs in each level consists of theoretical courses and research projects as is usually done by other governmental universities in Iran. FPE is now aimed to admit students in developing branches of polymer technology such as Nanotechnology Bio compatible Polymers and also Polymerization Engineering and Paint Technology.
Institute for Polymeric Materials and Nanostructured Materials Research Center in addition to several other research laboratories equipped with appropriated instruments among the others are the research facilities at FPE to execute research programs and to follow educational schemes.
