Divisions

The role of Divisions is to further the scientific objectives of the Association through co-ordination of appropriate scientific research, organisation of scientific meetings, and promotion of the exchange of information and data. Each Division is responsible for its role, structure, and mode of operation. Each Division is represented on the IACS Bureau by a person elected to be the Division Head. Divisions may establish working groups with specified terms of reference. Such working groups usually run for a maximum of 4 years or until a new bureau is elected. The role and effectiveness of each Division shall be reviewed periodically by the Bureau.
