Special Interest Groups
Our Special Interest Groups (SIGs) lead the charge in advancing operational research within specialized areas, catering to the diverse interests and expertise of our members. These vibrant communities unite professionals, academics, and enthusiasts who are passionate about specific fields within OR.
SIGs are pivotal in driving innovation, sharing knowledge, and promoting best practices within their domains. With specialized events, webinars, and workshops, SIGs offer members a wealth of opportunities to stay at the forefront of research, gain insights into emerging trends, and collaborate with like-minded individuals.
SIGs provide a supportive environment for networking, mentorship, and professional development, encouraging camaraderie and robust discussions.
Most events are free and open to all, allowing members to invite clients and others interested in the subject. Explore the activities of our SIGs on these pages and in our membership magazine, Inside OR.
