Am I Eligible for Senior Membership?

Reflecting an achieved rank with the society, a senior member is a professional of vast experience both within the field and within TMS. Senior membership is open to individuals whose age and continuous years of TMS membership, when added together equal 100 or more, or retired professionals age 65 (or older) with 30+ years of continuous membership in TMS. Senior members are determined by the Society and are notified when they reach senior member status. Senior members are not required to pay dues.

Do Senior Members Receive Print Subscriptions to JOM?

Senior members receive complimentary print subscriptions to JOM: The Magazine (news and feature articles) and complimentary electronic subscriptions to JOM technical articles. If a senior member wishes to receive the complete JOM Publication of Record in print format (technical articles and JOM: The Magazine content) by mail, they may purchase a subscription for $120 through the online TMS membership renewal form or by contacting a TMS membership representative at members@tms.org or by phone at 1-724-776-9000, ext. 1.
