¡¡¡¡The Position You Are In Now£º/ Home / About CMRS
¡¡¡¡Chinese Materials Research Society (C-MRS) is one of the relatively new "MRS-Type" societies established in the last two decades over the world. Its principal idea is to encourage communication and discussions across the various fields of science affecting materials and the shaping of material science, by providing forums for scientific interactions among scientists; engineers and research managers of all materials related disciplines through joint multidisciplinary conferences and publications.
¡¡¡¡C-MRS was formally founded on May 16,1991. Its predecessor was the loosely organized "Chinese joint committee of societies of materials" formed in 1986 as an effort to emphasize the interdisciplinary approach of Materials Science and Engineering through the cooperation among 27 existing materials related societies.
¡¡¡¡C-MRS is an independent civil organization registered in the Ministry of Civil Administration of China. It is a nation wide society under the auspices of the Chinese Academy of Science (CAS). Like all other formal national academic societies in China C-MRS is under the umbrella of the Chinese Association for Science and Technology (CAST).
¡¡¡¡C-MRS now consists of about 8000 members from China including those from the 120 collective members. C-MRS organizes one formal annual conference every year and several other special meetings. C-MRS publishes now three journals. C-MRS is an adhering body of the International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS) which now includes MRS (U.S.A), C-MRS, E-MRS (Europe), MRS-Australia, MRS-India, MRS-Japan, MRS-Korea, MRS-Mexico, MRS-Russia, MRS-Taiwan.
