Why join?

Becoming an LMS member offers unique opportunities to connect with a dynamic national and international mathematics network. Members can apply for research grants, attend exclusive Society events, and influence national policies related to mathematics. Additionally, they benefit  from access to the Verblunsky Members' Room, free online subscription to selected journals and complimentary use of theSociety's Library at UCL, amongst otherLMS membership benefits.

The strength and impact of the LMS are driven by the active involvement of its members. Their support provides the resources, expertise, and participation needed to sustain the Society's wide array of activities, from publishing and grant-giving to influencing public policy and enhancing mathematics education in schools. The Society’s Council strongly encourages all mathematicians at UK universities and similar institutions to join the LMS and contribute to the advancement of mathematical research. The LMS also warmly welcomes applications from mathematicians of comparable standing who work or have worked in other fields.
