Description

One $2,500 scholarship is available to full-time undergraduate applicants in their sophomore or junior years, who are majoring in metallurgical and/or materials science and engineering with an emphasis on the science and engineering of load-bearing materials, including studies into the nature of a material's physical properties based upon its microstructure and operating environment.

Awards are presented during the Structural Materials Division luncheon at the TMS Annual Meeting and Exhibition, and up to $500 is available for each recipient's travel expenses. Award recipients must travel to and attend the conference in order to receive the travel funds associated with this award.
