About the GT Materials Society

We aim to.... link students to the professional materials societies and raise awareness and involvement about opportunities open to students. The GT Materials Society typically meets several times a semester (dates are announced later) for FUN. Members should also join Materials Advantage. Your commitments are up to you. Feel free to comment, interact, and create, in digital space! Please visit our google calendar for the quickest notifications.

Clemson Tailgate

Hey everyone,

The Clemson game is this Thursday night, so we are going to start tailgating around 5pm in the courtyard behind the Love building. Thanks to one of our alumni (Scott Liebermann) who works for exponent, we are going to have corporate sponsorship for this tailgate. That means we will have FREE FOOD, so I hope to see everyone there to at least mooch off the free food and pretend that they care about the game (which should be awesome as it is every year).

First Meeting of the Semester

The Materials Society at Georgia Tech (previously called the MSE Umbrella Society) is holding its first meeting on Tuesday, September 8 at 11am in Love 185. This will be an opportunity for students to network with other students, learn about the materials societies included in a Material Advantage membership, upcoming conferences and events.

David Morrison, chair of the Atlanta ASM chapter, will discuss what events the chapter sponsors, opportunities for student involvement, and his professional work. In addition, grad students will answer questions related to graduate school applications and other MSE or GT related questions. And, of course, we will have free pizza!

Hope to see everyone there!
