Benefit through Sponsorship of the Symposium
Following the hugely successful inaugural Symposium in 2018, the Postgraduate Research Symposium on Ferrous Metallurgy is established as the showcase annual event for presentation, demonstration and acknowledgement of the latest academic thinking on ferrous metallurgy.
The 2020 Symposium will allow doctoral researchers and university departments from across the UK to showcase their research.
