Student Opportunities
Symposium Assistant Positions
Graduate students who are interested
in assisting in the symposium rooms during the 2002 MRS Spring
Meeting are encouraged to apply for a Symposium Assistant position.
Symposium assistants deliver essential meeting materials to the
technical sessions, track and record attendance, and perform
other tasks requested by the session chairs. By assisting in
a minimum of four half-day sessions, students will receive a
complimentary student registration, a one-year MRS student membership
commencing July 1, 2002, and a stipend to help defray expenses.
Symposium assistant positions will be assigned on a first-come,
first-served basis, as needed.
Student Mixer
All graduate students and members
of MRS University Chapters are invited to attend the student
mixer reception (time and location to be determined). Student
chapters are a vital part of MRS, providing discussion between
students and faculty and promoting student interest in materials
science. Don't miss this opportunity to meet with others involved
in MRS student activities.
University Chapter Representatives
Chapter officers and faculty advisors
are invited to attend a meeting of MRS University Chapter representatives
to compare notes on recent activities and brainstorm on new projects
and issues of common concern. Anyone interested in starting a
new chapter is also welcome (date, time, and location TBD).

the above meeting activities, or for general meeting information,
