Polymeric materials with excellent performance are the foundation for developing high-level technology and advanced manufacturing. Polymeric material genome engineering (PMGE) is becoming a vital platform for the intelligent manufacturing of polymeric materials. However, the development of PMGE is still in its infancy, and many issues remain to be addressed. In this perspective, we elaborate on the PMGE concepts, summarize the state-of-the-art research and achievements, and highlight the challenges and prospects in this field. In particular, we focus on property estimation approaches, including property proxy prediction and machine learning prediction of polymer properties. The potential engineering applications of PMGE are discussed, including the fields of advanced composites, polymeric materials for communications, and integrated circuits.
