Overview

Welcome to the 90th Military Operations Research Society Symposium! We are excited to announce that the 90th MORS Symposium will once again be an in-person event! We are fortunate to have the 90th MORS Symposium hosted by the Marine Corps University in Quantico, Virginia 13-16 June 2022 (abiding to any DoD and COVID-19 guidance and restrictions). The theme for the 90th MORS Symposium is “Innovative Analysts Supporting Integrated Deterrence.”

Since WWII, the United States has sought to deter aggression against its interests and partners across the globe. This Deterrence is not limited to the military sphere, as it involves all instruments of national power including informational, economic and technological domains. Thus, deterrence operations that influence adversarial behaviors must naturally be Integrated across all U.S. military services and federal agencies, leveraging both non-military and non-kinetic tools. It also must incorporate government, academic and industrial contributions from all allied nations. MORS’ Innovative Analysts support this strategy by creating scientific ideas and technological advances, highlighting them to the vibrant community at the MORS Symposium.

This event would not be possible without the commitment of our government sponsors, the collaboration with our industry and national research partners, the work of the MORS professional staff, and the devotion of our MORS volunteers. These volunteers and professional staff are working countless hours to ensure the 90th MORS Symposium is a great success. We are extremely thankful to the many individuals from various organizations who are contributing to the planning of the 90th MORS Symposium. We are especially thankful to the Marine Corps University for hosting the 90th MORS Symposium.

Our national and homeland security challenges remain at times elusive and challenging. We continue to reinforce a strong foundation based in sound operations research practice through events like the 90th Symposium. We are confident that we are putting our society and profession on a trajectory that will lead us to a bright future.

We’re so thankful that you are planning to attend the 90th MORS Symposium. We hope that you continue to think of MORS as your professional society, and as the Symposium as your preeminent professional development venue. We look forward to seeing you at the 90th MORS Symposium!

Respectfully,
