How Do I Become a Materials Scientist?

Zhao Jicheng, male, born in Macheng, Hubei. He obtained a bachelor's degree in materials from Central South University of Mining and Metallurgy (now Central South University) in 1985, a master's degree in materials from Central South University of Technology (now Central South University), and a doctorate in materials science from Lehigh University in 1995. He worked at General Electric in 1995, and was awarded a tenured associate professor at Ohio State University in 2008. He was promoted to a full professor in 2009. Professor Zhao Jicheng has long been engaged in the study of phase diagram thermodynamics and phase change dynamics, which has important and extensive influence internationally. He has made outstanding contributions in the research of phase diagrams and phase transitions and the research and development of aero engine materials. Materials scientist. ^[1]
