*The Young Statisticians Section (YSS) of the Royal Statistical Society are
seeking enthusiastic individuals to join the YSS Committee for 2020.*
The YSS exists to support and bring together statisticians in the first 10
years of their careers – including students. We run a number of events each
year for young statisticians, including careers days, webinars,
competitions, and a variety of sessions at the RSS Annual Conference, as
well as supporting numerous other conferences and events in the statistical
calendar.
See our website <https://statsyss.wordpress.com/>, Facebook
<https://www.facebook.com/youngstatisticianssection/> and Twitter
<https://twitter.com/statsyss> for further details of our YSS events and
activities!
Being a volunteer for the YSS Committee is a commitment but very rewarding
(and fun!)
We are looking for people with new and creative ideas for reaching out to
the early-career statistics community, and to help organise events targeted
at young statisticians.
You will be expected to attend three committee meetings per year, represent
the YSS and RSS at events (reasonable travel expenses paid), and help to
plan and run our events.
If you would like to be considered for one of the committee positions, send
an email (subject line “YSS Committee 2020”) to [log in to unmask] by *5pm
on Friday 20th September*, with a short statement (up to 250 words)
summarising your background and why you want to join.
*Please note that to take up a position you must be or willing to become a
full fellow of the RSS and within the first 10 years of your statistical
career.*
Names of the YSS Committee 2020 will be announced in October 2019.
If you are attending the RSS Conference in Belfast (2-5 September 2019),
and would like to find out more about the YSS, please do come up and have a
chat with the current committee – just look for the red t-shirts!
