Steelmaker Ternium México has been recruiting students and graduates from the Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León (UANL) to work on projects related to advanced high-strength steels for the automotive industry.
A news release issued by Ternium notes one recent recruit is about to receive her doctorate in materials engineering at the School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering at UANL.
Working in cooperation with a Ternium product technologist, the student has helped design a tool that simulates the hot stamping process to which this new type of steel will be exposed.
Ternium has sponsored the research, which it says translates into a beneficial effect for both the industry and the academy.
Currently, Ph.D. students from UANL and universities abroad are developing their study projects in cooperation with Ternium, according to the company.
