On 21 May 2026, close to 70 researchers from the MaP Material Strength & Durability community gathered at ETH Zentrum's Alumni Pavillon for the fifth edition of the symposium — a full day of invited talks, doctoral pitches, and the kind of in-depth exchange the community has come to look forward to.
Every year, one doctoral thesis rises above the rest. We are thrilled to announce the four finalists for the MaP Award 2026, recognising the best doctoral research in Materials and Processes at ETH Zurich submitted in 2025.
