Hello,

I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of some quality materials science resources on the web? I am currently in an intro to materials science and engineering class and have been fascinated by the subject this semester. I was just wondering if there are any "go to" resources on the internet to supplement what I'm learning?

Thank you!

There is MIT's Open CourseWare in Materials Science and Engineering -

A nice reference on metals is:

There are scientific and technical societies one can join:
