About MRSI
Pioneering Materials Research Since 1989
The Materials Research Society of India (MRSI), headquartered in Bangalore, is a non-profit professional organization dedicated to the advancement of interdisciplinary materials research and technology. Established in 1989, MRSI has grown to become India's foremost society bringing together scientists, engineers, and industry professionals working in all areas of materials science.
Our mission is to foster the exchange of information and ideas on the synthesis, characterization, processing, and application of materials across traditional boundaries. We actively promote education, career development, and public awareness of the critical role materials play in societal progress, sustainability, and economic development.
MRSI operates through regional chapters across India, including Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, and Hyderabad, each organizing local seminars, workshops, and outreach programs. The Society maintains strong collaborative ties with international counterparts like MRS (USA), Japanese Society of Applied Physics, and European Materials Research Society.
