Scope of the Conference

 

The FEMS Euromat Series
Engineering progress essentially depends on the availability and the intelligent use of materials. For many key industry areas, Europe is at the forefront of the development of new materials and their applications. Euromat, the biennial meeting of the Federation of European Materials Societies with its 23 member societies, is the premier pan-european event covering the complete range of Materials Science and Technology.

The Euromat series so far has in turn been organised by the FEMS member societies and represents by this a showcase of the competence of the European materials community. It includes the following venues:

1989: Aachen, D
1991: Cambridge, United Kingdom
1993: Paris, France
1995: Padua, Italy
1997: Maastricht, Netherlands
1999: Munich, Germany
2001: Rimini, Italy
2003: Lausanne, Switzerland

 

FEMS Awards
At the occasion of Euromat, FEMS presents its highest distinctions:

• The European Materials Medal is awarded to an active materials scientist or engineer for distinguished contributions to Materials Science and Engineering in Europe.

• The Materials Science and Technology Prize is awarded to a young European materials scientist or engineer in recognition of a significant contribution to MST. It consists of a full set of the 20-volume WILEY-VCH book series.
