The Materials Literature Review Prize of the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining aims to encourage the preparation of definitive, critical reviews of the literature by students as an essential part of study for a higher degree in the materials field, and subsequently make the best of these available to a wider readership. The prize is administered by the editorial board of Materials Science and Technology (MST).
Open to any postgraduate student studying in the UK or internationally, the prize carries a cash award, in line with other Institute prizes for papers. A winning entry and two runner up prizes are awarded each year, and all entries are considered for publication in the journal subject to acceptance following peer-review.
