Membership

Who are EurOMA Members?

The EurOMA membership is drawn from people who are interested in the development of knowledge, teaching and application of Operations Management as a professional field. Academic members include teachers, researchers and students in colleges, universities and other higher education institutions. These members represent a wide range of departments and faculties and include also academics from other disciplines who nonetheless have a strong interest in the field.

Business members are drawn from managers and engineers who are interested in new OM developments, the application of new ideas, and who seek interaction with both academics and others from industry.

Membership to EurOMA is not restricted to Europe; it is open to members from other regions who benefit from their involvement in the network, the publications and information offered as well as participation in many EurOMA events. As of 2006, an agreement with POMS in the United States was signed so that joint membership to both organisations is now possible (via either association) at a considerable discount.

In 2015, EurOMA consisted of 710 registered members for the calendar year. This number is steadily rising with current members renewing and new members joining the Association annually.
