The Council for the Mathematical Sciences (CMS) was established in 2001 by the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA), the London Mathematical Society (LMS) and the Royal Statistical Society (RSS). The CMS comprises representatives and observers from the mathematical sciences community, including the Presidents and Chief Executives of these three societies.
The CMS aims to provide an authoritative and objective body able to speak on the role of the mathematical sciences in UK higher education, research, business, industry and the public sector, and to engage with and respond to policy decisions that affect the mathematical sciences in these areas.
In October 2006, Professor Sir David Wallace CBE FRS FREng was appointed as the independent Chair of the CMS.
In 2008 the Edinburgh Mathematical Society and the Operational Research Society became Members of the CMS.
