The UK’s Academy for the Mathematical Sciences (AcadMathSci)provides an authoritative, persuasive, and influential voice for the whole of the mathematical sciences. It brings together academia, education, business, industry, and government from across all four nations, providing crucial connectivity for harnessing the power of the discipline. Through expert-led policy development and broad access to mathematical expertise, and with sufficient resources, the Academy will be a critical, high-impact delivery mechanism to address essential national priorities. It will support the pipeline of people, knowledge, and skills that is vital for economic growth and societal wellbeing.

2026 Call for applications for Fellowship of the Academy for the Mathematical Sciences

Our second Call for Applications for Fellowship of the Academy for the Mathematical Sciences is currently open. We are seeking exceptional individuals who share our ambition to strengthen the mathematical sciences across the UK.

The appointment of our first cohort of Fellows marked an important milestone for the Academy. This inaugural cohort is already playing a central role in shaping strategy, delivering projects, and strengthening the Academy’s position as an authoritative and persuasive voice for the mathematical sciences.

We are equally excited to launch this second call, seeking Fellows who develop, teach, research, communicate, and use the full breadth of the mathematical sciences. Please share this opportunity with your networks, including by encouraging and sponsoring potential candidates.

The Academy strongly encourages applications from a diverse range of candidates who have made significant contributions to, or through, the mathematical sciences, including individuals from a wide range of backgrounds, genders, ethnicities, regions and nations of the UK, and areas of the mathematical sciences.

Further information for applicants and sponsors, including details about the role of Fellows and the application process, can be found in our Fellowship Application Pack (download from https://www.acadmathsci.org.uk/2026-call-for-fellowship-applications/). The closing date for applications is Monday 14 September 2026.
