Carol Handwerker, Reinhardt Schuhmann Jr. Professor of Materials Engineering

I feel deeply honored and humbled to receive this highly prestigious award from TMS and to be recognized by the Society for my contributions to the field. TMS has always served as the forum for reporting on new scientific discoveries, debating the laws of physics and chemistry in the context of materials science and metallurgy, and educating the next generation of materials scientists and engineers to meet our growing challenges as citizens of the world. I am grateful to my friends and colleagues in TMS for creating such a community of scholars, where all are welcome.
