A  Call for Applications for the first Fellows of the Academy for the Mathematical Sciences  is now open. This founding cohort, to be appointed later this year, will represent every aspect of maths in the UK – educators, researchers, scholars, and those who apply the mathematical sciences in business, industry, or government. Fellows will have made an exceptional contribution to or with the mathematical sciences, will have the appetite and potential to make further such contributions in the future, and will be committed to working with the Academy to strengthen the mathematical sciences in the UK. 

To realise this the Academy asks for your help:

You may personally wish to apply, or you may want to sponsor someone who embodies your image of a good Fellow of the Academy. In any case we ask that you help us by sharing this announcement widely – the bigger the pool of potential Fellows we can reach, the stronger the Fellowship will be. 

The Academy strongly encourages applications from a diverse range of candidates who stand out for their contributions to or using the mathematical sciences – including individuals from a range of career stages and backgrounds, different genders, ethnicities, regions and nations of the UK, and areas of the mathematical sciences. 

Further information about the role of Fellows and how to apply and/or sponsor can be found via the website or LinkedIn

The closing date for applications is 15 September 2025.
