The Academy has 32 National Committees which are widely representativeof its disciplines. The broad aim of each committee is to foster theirdesignated branch of natural science in Australia and serve as a link betweenAustralian scientists and overseas scientists in the same field. TheseNational Committees have the responsibility of liaising with the appropriatenational and international bodies and advising the Academy's Council onICSU business. The particular aims of the National Committee for the MathematicalSciences are to: provide liaison with the InternationalMathematical Union (IMU) and other appropriate international bodies,propose and encourage activity in the mathematical sciences in Australiain collaboration with the AustralianMathematical Sciences Council (AMSC) the AustralianMathematical Society (AustMS) the StatisticalSociety of Australia (SSA) and other appropriate national bodies,ensure the maximum participation of Australian mathematical scientistsin relevant activities of the IMU,promulgate the national values and benefits of the mathematical sciences.The purpose of this website is to to provide information about the current activities of the National Committeeto provide links to other relevant mathematical organizations,to act as a resource for matters within the ambit of the Committee, both nationallyand internationally.Further details of the content of the site can be obtained from the index which may be accessed by following the "Index" link above.Informationwill be revised and added on an irregular basis.
