The Council for the Mathematical Sciences has taken an important step towards creating a National Academy for the Mathematical Sciences with the appointment of an Executive Committee and Executive Director to carry out the feasibility and set-up phase.

We are seeking Editors in Chief for two of our prestigious OR Society journals.

The OR Society fully endorses this statement on Russia’s Attack on Ukraine, which was co-signed by the Royal Society and other National Academies of the G7 States.

The OR Society has just revamped its Researchers’ Database, the online directory for OR professionals who actively engage in research. Search by name, university, research interests, other keywords to expand your network!

In this instance, professionalisation isn’t a smart suit or a slick presentation. It covers the knowledge, skills and behaviours that might be expected of a data scientist. The OR Society is a key player in a group of bodies interested in what such professionalisation might look like.
