The aim of the MSIT Winter School is to provide first-class tuition in a selection of subjects closely associated with the study of phase equilibria in Materials Science, e.g. Phase Equilibria, Crystallography and Computational Thermodynamics. Each module will involve lectures, demonstrations and problems classes.
A unique and exciting aspect to the MSIT Winter School is that it will run in parallel with the 34^th Annual MSIT Workshop on Heterogeneous Multicomponent Equilibria.

The lectures are given mainly by members of the MSIT who are world experts in their respective fields.
