STUDENT CHAPTERS Welcome to the website for INFORMS Student Chapters!  Future leaders of INFORMS are now in student chapters at over 60 universities internationally. Goals and Objectives: An INFORMS student chapter is a venue for learning, a catalyst for professional advancement, and an opportunity for camaraderie. Within a chapter, student members from business, engineering, and science programs can join with faculty to organize seminars and discussion groups about new methods and applications of OR/MS. The chapter also enables students to go beyond the bounds of course work and institution as they engage in research activities that lay the groundwork for their future as OR/MS professionals. Of course, occasional social outings enjoyably round out an INFORMS student chapter's calendar.
