The Materials
Research Society is a not-for-profit organization which brings together
scientists, engineers and research managers from industry, government,
academia and research laboratories to share findings in the research and
development of new materials of technological importance.
Founded in 1973, MRS now consists of more than 13,000 members from the
United States -- as well as over 50 other countries. The Society is different
from that of single discipline professional societies because it encourages
communication and technical information exchange across the various fields
of science affecting materials. MRS sponsors two major annual Meetings
offering approximately 75 topical symposia. The Society recognizes professional
and technical excellence, conducts symposium tutorials, and encourages
technical interaction among college students through University
Chapters, and among materials professionals through regional Sections.
MRS also promotes communication exchange through publication of symposium
proceedings, MRS Bulletin, Journal
of Materials Research, and other publications,
databases and videotapes related to current research activities.
MRS works closely with other materials organizations around the world, and is an Adhering Body of the
International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS).
