A method for manufacturing a silicon carbide fiber reinforced glass composite, which comprises either dipping silicon carbide fibers in molten glass in a tank, the molten glass being given wave vibration of 10-30 KHz by a supersonic vibrator provided with a cooling means to unravel the silicon carbide fibers and have the molten glass permeated therebetween, or plasma melt ejecting glass powder onto silicon carbide fibers to obtain a silicon carbide fiber/glass preform, molding the preform into a predetermined form and then subjecting the molded preform to thermal molding thereby to manufacture the silicon carbide fiber reinforced glass composite in the form of a molding.
