Abstract
AbstractA short account is given of educational developments in materials science in the USA which have led to the introduction of more broadly based courses, interdisciplinary studies, and stronger links with industry. The objectives of Materials Research Laboratories, which do not themselves seek industrial funding, is contrasted with the new Materials Research Centers which actively seek industrial participation and finance. Such developments have features in common with the Interdisciplinary Research Centres currently being established in the UK. Finally, a tribute is paid to the many contributions made by Sir Alan Cottrell to education in the materials field.MST/1312
