Special Project Funding is administered by the TMS Foundation of the Minerals Metals and Materials Society. It supports occasional projects and initiatives whose purposes and objectives connect directly to the foundation’s mission. Proposals are considered individually by the TMS Foundation Board of Trustees, with applicants describing the proposed work, its background, and its objectives.
The opportunity is mission-based rather than focused on a particular research topic or scientific field. Proposals identify the proposing entity and any collaborating entities, together with the requested funding, budget, and period of performance. The foundation’s broader awards and outreach programs provide support, offer recognition, and promote professional excellence.
