A novel strategy to control the precipitation behavior of the austenitic phase, and to obtain large‐sized, transformation‐induced, plasticity‐reinforced bulk metallic glass matrix composites, with good tensile properties, is proposed. By inducing heterogeneous nucleation of the transformable reinforcement via potent nucleants formed in situ, the characteristics of the austenitic phase are well manipulated.
