Join a TMS Technical Division Committee
All Members Welcome
TMS
Posted on: 5/6/2009... One of the most beneficial aspects of a TMS membership is the ability to meet and network with people from around the world who work in your field or expertise. And one of the best ways of doing this is to join a TMS committee.

TMS offers 40 committees throughout five technical divisions that allow members from all areas of materials science and engineering to find a technical home within the Society. To find a committee that most closely relates to your interest visit the TMS Technical Divisions homepage. Once there you can navigate through each of the technical divisions and committees associated with each. When you find a committee you would like to serve on, contact the chair to learn how you can participate in upcoming activities.

For more information on each of the TMS Technical Division committees, visit the TMS Technical Division homepage.
