3rd International Materials Education Symposium

2011 Advisory Committee

For the first two years, the Materials Education Symposia were sponsored by Granta Design, and chaired by Professor Mike Ashby of Cambridge University. The positive feedback from previous years encouraged us to further increase the scope of this event. In 2011, an independent Academic Advisory Committee was invited to guide the development of the agenda and the selection of papers.
