Student chapters are an important component of a large national (and increasingly, international) association like INFORMS. Student groups make it possible to maintain a close, regular association with other students in the same department or university. Networking, professional dialogue, and defining operations research and the management sciences for INFORMS student members and the broader academic community are all activities that take place intensely within student chapters. Within these chapters students can meet frequently and forge intellectual connections with faculty and professionals that lead to publications, job opportunities, consulting relationships, internships, and personal friendships.
