TMS Foundation
The TMS Foundation is the charitable arm of TMS and funded the initial development of Comic-tanium. A particular focus of the TMS Foundation is the
support and development of the next generation of minerals, metals, and materials scientists and engineers. It accomplishes this through scholarships
and academic competitions for students who are pursuing degrees related to the minerals, metals, and materials professions. Once students have completed
their education, the TMS Foundation provides professional development resources and support to help them navigate the early years of their
careers. Comic-tanium extends the TMS Foundation’s mission even further by reaching out to middle and high school age students about the possibilities of
science and engineering careers. For more information, visit the TMS Foundation website at www.tms.org/foundation.
