INFORMS Scholarship
INFORMS is pleased to announce scholarships to be awarded to undergraduate students to attend the INFORMS Annual Meeting. This scholarship program aims to foster the professional pipeline of operations research, management science, and analytics researchers by providing undergraduate students an opportunity to experience academic and professional development by attending the INFORMS Annual Meeting. 

We encourage self-nominations from undergraduate students across a variety of quantitative disciplines, including (but not limited to): mathematics, engineering, computer science, statistics, business, and economics. This scholarship is aimed at two types of undergraduate students:

  1. those already engaged in operations research and management science studies and/or research projects, and
  2. those who have had little to no training in traditional OR/MS courses, but are considering pursuing graduate studies in this area, e.g., a third year undergraduate math major who is contemplating their post-graduation plans.

The awardees will be provided with a recommended schedule to help them enjoy and learn from the conference and other scholarship winners. Specific activities may include:

  • Meeting with ambassador graduate students
  • Meetings with committee members and INFORMS Staff
  • Attending plenaries, selected talks/posters, and tutorials
  • Attending new member breakfast
  • Attending INFORMS Welcome Reception
  • Attending INFORMS society meetings
