About ASM International
Purpose
The ASM International Society is formed for the exclusive purpose of advancing and disseminating scientific, engineering, and technical knowledge, particularly with respect to the manufacture, processing, characterization, selection, understanding, use and life-cycle of engineering materials through education, research and the compilation and dissemination of information to serve technical and professional needs and interests and to benefit the general public.
Strategy
The basic mission of ASM International is to foster the understanding and application of engineered materials by gathering, processing, and dissemination of useful, reliable, technical information through forums, education, publications, and electronic media. ASM will manage its member, financial, organization and staff resources to be the leading society for engineered materials. ASM will seek to cooperate with other technical societies, when it is in the interest of ASM members. ASM is an information sharing network of personal contact among members. ASM will continue to nurture and develop this network through chapters, technical divisions, councils, committees, meetings and other forums. ASM will encourage the development of capable, well-educated materials specialists.

Geographic Scope
The ASM International Society will actively seek and incorporate into its various services the best available technical information on engineering materials from wherever in the world it may originate and distribute that information wherever it is needed.
