The SECC represents the views of student, younger and early career* members to the Institute's Executive Boards and Advisory Council. We aim to represent the diverse range of members by ensuring Council representatives cover the different disciplines, regions and career pathways of student and early career members.
Since the Committee was founded in 1967 (as the Younger Members' Committee), we have developed a range of events to encourage networking and early career members' involvement with IOM3. Our greatest successes to date include the Young Persons' Lecture Competition, Matopoly, Professional Development events and Future Materials Conference. While we have been successful in the past, we aim to provide more events in the future. These include regular informal networking opportunities, along with new skills seminars, conferences and regional events.
We also want to ensure that we are raising with Executive Board the major issues affecting younger members. To do this successfully, we need to communicate more with members and obtain feedback from events.

Younger Member Representatives
To ensure the views and needs of our members are effectively presented, we endeavour to appoint a younger member on each of the Institute's Technical Communities.
