Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences, is a national association for academics and practitioners in operations research, management science and related fields.

Stanford INFORMS, our local student chapter, aims to create an organization for graduate and undergraduate students to explore their interests in these areas.

The undergraduate branch assists members in exploring career opportunities by coordinating with companies for corporate lunches, corporate night, and faculty lunches.

The graduate branch promotes involvement in cutting edge research by hosting events such as academic speakers and student research presentations.

Both branches work to build a feeling of community through activities such as panel discussions and social events.

We are proud to announce that the Stanford INFORMS Chapter has been awarded
the Dean of Students Outstanding Achievement Award for 2001-2002.
