Call for Leadership


Please Log in to Volunteer


Shaping Our Future

The vision and mission of the Societies is advanced with the dedication and commitment of over 1700 committee members.

Committees carry out the following functions:

- Voting on and selecting award recipients
- Developing and recommending policy
- Providing advice on editorial issues
- Creating a rewarding and valuable member experience

If you'd like to contribute your time and be a part of a unique and positive community of member-leaders, please respond to this call for leadership. Participating as a Society volunteer is truly a rewarding and enjoyable experience.

SCISOC committees are filled by appointment by the SCISOC President-Elect. Appointment requests are gathered in the spring and summer. Appointments are made in August through November for committee service beginning the following year.
