Martin Strangwood gained his BA (later MA) in 1984 and his PhD in 1988 both from Cambridge University. His PhD was on Prediction and Assessment of Weldmetal Microstructures, an area that he continued for the following 3 years whilst at AEA Harwell working on a variety of projects including the Sizewell B safety case. During his time at Harwell he also acted as a tutor for the Open University. He joined the School of Metallurgy and Materials at Birmingham in 1990 and has since supervised 53 PhDs and 8 Masters projects
