TMS Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Toolkit

The TMS Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Toolkit in 2014 as a space to collect, archive, and retain learnings and content from DMMM Summits and other TMS DEI committee items.

Given the emergence of curations on the leading science, research, best practices, and training in the DEIJ space by DEIJ experts, this toolkit, which was maintained largely by TMS volunteers, was archived in 2024. All information created during those 10 years remains available, but the material is no longer being curated, and web links are not routinely checked for continued accuracy. TMS, which is a society made up of experts and professionals in minerals, metals, and materials, is committed to ensuring that our society is a leader in inclusion, equity, and social justice in the materials profession. As such, we encourage those looking for the newest information and best practices in the DEIJ space to utilize the below links on resources continually curated by DEIJ experts and professionals.
