Tata Steel has announced the donation to endow a Professorship of Metallurgy at the University of Cambridge.

The holder of the Chair, to be inaugurated in Cambridge on November 24, will be known as the Tata Steel Professor of Metallurgy. The endowment recognises the commitment of the Tata Steel Group and the University to world-leading research in the field, particularly in steels, as well as Professor Bhadeshia's distinguished work in the subject.

Professor Harry Bhadeshia is one of the world's leading experts on physical metallurgy in general, and on the manipulation of steels in particular. His specific expertise is on how processing steel influences microstructure.
