Details
As an incentive to become a member, the Bernoulli Society offers:
• 50% fee reduction for the first year of membership of new members
• Ph.D. Students join for free
• 50% fee reduction for the first two years for postdocs.
Retired persons, couples and members from developing countries (please refer to the list at http://isi.cbs.nl/developing.htm) continue to receive a 50% fee reduction.
All the above members receive the full membership benefits of a regular member.
The Bernoulli Society has partnered with some societies to offer joint membership with reduction in dues by joining both organizations at the same time. Regular members who would also like to be members of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS) can apply for a joint BS-IMS membership. You will also receive full IMS membership benefits. If you are an elected member of ISI, you have the option to apply for a BS-IMS-ISI joint membership.
Permanent residents of developing countries (please see
http://isi.cbs.nl/developing.htm) can apply for membership with ‘extraordinary’ status. There are no annual dues, but an entrance fee is charged to cover administrative costs of membership, but otherwise extraordinary members will enjoy the usual benefits of individual membership of the Bernoulli Society such as voting rights, eligibility to offices of the Bernoulli Society, lower registration fees at conferences of the Bernoulli Society, and reductions to journal subscriptions. However, members with extraordinary status will not receive the official publications of the Bernoulli Society free of charge, but may subscribe to them at special rates.
