The Colloquium awards provide financial support to OR/MS graduate students to attend the INFORMS Doctoral Colloquium at the Annual Meeting and the Early Career Professionals' Network (ECPN) at the Business Analytics conference, respectively.
The Forum for Women in OR/MS (WORMS) will sponsor one student member to attend the Doctoral Student Colloquium at the 2023 INFORMS Annual Meeting in Phoenix, Arizona, October 15-18, 2023. The award includes registration to the 2023 INFORMS Annual Meeting, the Doctoral Student Colloquium, and a one-year membership of WORMS.
To be considered, applicants (of any gender) should include the following additional items to the nomination package they send out to apply to the Doctoral Student Colloquium:

• A note stating that the student is interested in applying for the Women in OR/MS (WORMS) Doctoral Colloquium Award.
• A brief paragraph describing their interest in supporting Women in OR/MS (50-150 words).
• A letter of recommendation from the department chair or supervisor.
  To be clear, the entire nomination package should be sent to the organizers of the Doctoral Student Colloquium. Please refer to their page for the deadline. Applicants should not send their documents to WORMS. WORMS will assess the applications based on their application components. The selection committee will notify recipients before the INFORMS Annual Meeting.
  For inquiries about this award, please contact WORMS President Dr. Angelika Leskovskaya (aleskovs@smu.edu).
