And the awards go to . . .One of the benefits TMS student members enjoy is the opportunity to earn money for college through scholarships and student contests. Scholarships are awarded annually to graduate and undergraduate student members. Visit the Student Awards page for information on awards, competitions, and scholarships. The following are this year’s winners: “I am honored to win the 2006 J. Keith Brimacombe TMS
Presidential Scholarship. This award facilitates the continuation
of my education in materials science. I would
like to thank Dr. Irma Talmy and Dr. Jim Zaykoski of the
Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division, for
introducing me to materials science and Dr. Brent Fultz,
Dr. Bill Johnson and Dr. Dale Conner of the California
Institute of Technology for guiding me through my materials
science education and research. I plan on becoming
a socially responsible materials scientist.”
“The TMS Outstanding Graduate Student Paper award
is a dream come true for me.”
“I am honored to receive this award, having seen the
quality of past graduate student papers that have received
this award. It is a great feeling to have my paper
counted among them. I feel that TMS and other professional
societies are very important in a graduate student’s
career development, and providing these accolades
not only encourages individuals but helps promote
quality research within their respective schools.”
“I am incredibly honored to receive this award. The recognition
is greatly appreciated and makes all the hard
work even more satisfying. This award has also given me
the confidence to pursue graduate studies—a path I was
previously unsure about. The support and acknowledgement
that TMS gives all students is amazing and really
makes a difference in peoples’ lives. Thanks.”
“This award is very meaningful to me, as it rewards the
hard work that went into my research. I am really honored
to have my work chosen for such a prestigious award.”
“This award is a great honor to me; it symbolizes the
reward of dedication and motivates me to reach higher.
Yet, I know this award would not have come without the
help of many great people. Thank you.”
“I am honored to have been selected as one of
the TMS Extraction & Processing Division award
recipients. It is truly encouraging to feel this kind of
support as a student. This award acknowledges my
efforts, consequently giving me additional incentive
to work hard. Financially, this award will help fund my
education, giving me more time to focus on school.”
“I feel very fortunate and privileged to have been
selected to receive this scholarship. I am grateful for
the support from TMS that provides financially for
my education and allows me to pursue my degree
in Metallurgical Engineering. It is a great honor to be
recognized in this way and I would like to thank TMS for
all its assistance in helping me fulfill my goals.”
“It’s wonderful to have my academic diligence and extra
curricular involvement recognized; it not only provides
financial support, but more importantly provides
recognition and additional motivation to continue my
pursuit of excellence in the materials field.”
“I would like to thank the TMS EPD committee for
selecting me to receive this award. I am very honored
to have been chosen. I plan to put this money toward
offsetting the costs of my education.”
“I feel extremely honored to receive the TMS/LMD
Scholarship at an undergraduate level. Personally, I
am very thankful to TMS for appreciating my work and
talent. This award has brought into me a new enthusiasm
and energy for my work. I would also like to thank my
institute, Indian Institute of Technology–Kanpur (IIT
Kanpur), and my supervisor Prof. R. Balasubraminiam
whose persistent guidance has brought me to this
level of understanding. Without them, it would have
been impossible for me to get this award. I would really
appreciate the idea of TMS to provide scholarships to
the talents spread in different corners of the world. This
really helps budding talents to come up and dive into the
deepest of this field. This award has brought into me a
feeling of doing something which, one day, becomes a
great contribution to the field.”
“It is an honor for me to be the first student of my university
to receive the TMS Light Metals Division Scholarship. For
me, this award represents hard work and dedication
transformed into opportunities and recognition. This
award will help me to continue focusing my studies in
the area of materials science in Puerto Rico.”
“I am honored to accept the TMS Light Metals Division
Scholarship when I know that there are so many others
who are deserving and talented. This scholarship will
allow and inspire me to focus on my education and
research. I would like to thank Dr. David Seidman and
Keith Knipling for their support.”
“As a student, it is a rare distinction to receive the
recognition of a professional organization as illustrious
as TMS. For this reason, it is my great honor and privilege
to accept the 2006 SMD scholarship award. Not only
does it validate my efforts in materials engineering to
date, but it also encourages me to continue to remain
ambitious and hardworking in the future. I am extremely
grateful to TMS for this award and deeply indebted to
the professors at my university who have guided my
development as a student and an engineer.”
“I am honored to receive this award and have my
scholarly and leadership achievements recognized. I
consider it quite an accomplishment and am very proud
of being named a TMS Structural Materials Division
Scholar. This scholarship will significantly ease my
financial burden during my final year of undergraduate
work. The support of my undergraduate education
through support of the WSU Material Advantage student
chapter and now this scholarship by TMS has been a
tremendous benefit to me. I am very grateful to TMS
for this support.”
“TMS has played a pivotal role in my professional
development throughout graduate school, providing me
valuable opportunities to present my research and meet
professionals from all over the world. After four years
of superalloy research, to be recognized by TMS with
this scholarship is a great honor. I hope to continue my
involvement as I transition into industry.”
“I am truly honored to have been selected as a recipient
of the TMS Superalloys Scholarship. This award will
be instrumental in helping me further my interest
and studies in materials for gas turbine blades and
high-performance alloy applications. Thank you to
TMS for their invaluable, generous support of student
activities.”
