IAMG

The International Association for Mathematical Geosciences (IAMG) is a globally recognized scientific organization committed to advancing the application of mathematical and computational methods in the geosciences. Founded in 1968, IAMG serves as a bridge between geoscientists, mathematicians, statisticians, and computer scientists, encouraging interdisciplinary research to address complex challenges related to Earth systems, natural resources, and the environment.

 

IAMG supports a wide range of activities, including the publication of high-impact scientific journals such as Mathematical Geosciences, Computers & Geosciences, and Natural Resources Research. It organizes international conferences, workshops, and short courses to facilitate the exchange of ideas and the development of cutting-edge techniques in areas such as geostatistics, spatial data analysis, machine learning, and numerical modeling.

 

The association also actively promotes the involvement of young researchers through its student chapters, scholarships, and awards, fostering a global community of like-minded individuals passionate about quantitative geoscience. IAMG’s mission is to enhance scientific understanding of the Earth by integrating rigorous mathematical tools with geoscientific insights, ultimately contributing to informed decision-making in areas such as resource management, environmental protection, and hazard assessment.

IIT Bombay Student Chapter

IAMG IITB Student Chapter was approved on 24th April, 2025 by IAMG and is initiation of the Department of Earth Sciences, IIT Bombay. IAMG-IITB Student chapter is introduced first time from July 2025-26 session at IIT Bombay. The IAMG Student Chapter at IIT Bombay is established to bring together like-minded researchers from premier academic institutions and leading scientific organizations such as ISRO, CSIR labs, ONGC, and GSI. Our mission is to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, promote IAMG activities, and create a dynamic platform for knowledge exchange and innovation in the geoscience community.

​

The chapter aims to:

  • Encourage the application of quantitative methods in geoscience research

  • Build a vibrant interdisciplinary community among students and researchers

  • Organize workshops, talks, and collaborative projects to promote learning and innovation

  • Provide students opportunities to participate in conferences, seminars, and networking sessions

  • Connect with the global IAMG community and contribute to advancing geosciences through data and mathematics
