Material Advantage—Everything Else is Immaterial!

The ASM/TMS Student Program has recently expanded to include the American Ceramic Society (ACerS) and now is known as Material Advantage. There are many benefits of being a part of the new program, including more than $400,000 in scholarship monies, membership rebates, free meeting registrations, travel scholarship, networking, and much more. We are also in the process of developing new contests and competitions for the program so if you have any ideas please feel free to send them to students@tms.org.

Would you like to learn more about the Material Advantage program and what it can do for you? You can visit the new web site at www.materialadvantage.org. Or, if you would like a representative from ACerS, ASM, or TMS to visit you during your next chapter meeting just let us know . . . we will even bring the pizza!

To schedule a visit or for more information about membership, please do not hesitate to contact the membership department at students@tms.org.
