2012 MRS Spring Meeting Graduate Student Awards

MRS Graduate Student Awards are intended to honor and encourage graduate students whose academic achievements and current materials research display a high level of excellence and distinction. MRS seeks to recognize students of exceptional ability who show promise for significant future achievement in materials research.

The Society presented awards to graduate students who authored or co-authored symposium papers that exemplified significant and timely research. During the Award/Plenary Session all finalists were presented with either a Gold or Silver Award. Gold Award winners were then invited to deliver their talk in our video studio.  View the 2012 MRS Spring Meeting Graduate Student Gold Award Talks.
