Eric Jan Mittemeijer was born in 1950 in Haarlem, The Netherlands. He studied "chemical technology", with specialization physical chemistry, at the Delft University of Technology and acquired his "ingenieur (= Ir.)" degree (comparable to a M.Sc. degree) in 1972 and his Ph.D. degree in 1978. From 1985 till 1998 he was full Professor of Solid State Chemistry at the Delft University of Technology. Since 1998 he is Director at the Max Planck Institute for Metals Research in Stuttgart in conjunction with a full Professorship in Materials Science at the University of Stuttgart. He is Dean of the Study Course Materials Science of the University of Stuttgart and Speaker of the International Max Planck Research School on Advanced Materials. He leads a research department in the field of Phase Transformations. He has (co-)authored more than 580 scientific papers in international scientific journals and has received a number of honours for his scientific work.
