Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) is a professional society dedicated to applied mathematics, computational science, and data science through research, publications, and community. SIAM is the world's largest scientific society devoted to applied mathematics, and roughly two-thirds of its membership resides within the United States.[3] Founded in 1951,[4] the organization began holding annual national meetings in 1954,[5][6] and now hosts conferences, publishes books and scholarly journals, and engages in advocacy in issues of interest to its membership.[1][7] Members include engineers, scientists, and mathematicians, both those employed in academia and those working in industry. The society supports educational institutions promoting applied mathematics.

SIAM is one of the four member organizations of the Joint Policy Board for Mathematics.[8]
