#31 - ASM International Houston Chapter | Jean-Marc Tetevuide & Abigail Fossati, Materials Science Specialist at ARC Specialties
Tuesday, 18 November, 2025
In this episode, we explore the critical role of the American Society for Materials (ASM) in advancing careers and research in materials science and welding. We hear from a seasoned professional and a new graduate about why joining a professional society is essential for growth, providing the networking, expertise, and resources needed to succeed in a field that is constantly evolving.The discussion covers the practical value of ASM, especially when lacking in-house tools like microscopes or X-ray diffraction, by connecting you with people who have the answers and resources you need. The guests share their work on fascinating projects like combining alloys, including joining zirconium to stainless steel , and a surprising discovery about electric slag welding , all while demonstrating the power of applying methodical research to complex real-world challenges. The hosts also passionately discuss the motivations behind mentorship and giving back, and the shared drive to keep learning and leaving the industry better than they found it.What You'll Gain from This Episode:Access and Education: Why you don't need to be a member to attend the first ASM meeting or access their metallurgy classes.Student Benefits: The value of the Material Advantage package for students, which provides access to multiple professional societies like the American Ceramics Society.The Power of Collaboration: How professional societies bring together competitors to improve collective knowledge and network.Mentorship and Motivation: Personal stories about why seasoned experts are eager to help new materials scientists and what keeps them grounded and motivated.Looking Ahead: Insights into the future of material science, which will rely on combining different materials and creating single components with more than one alloy.Would you like to know more about the specific benefits of joining the American Society for Materials (ASM)?
