International new professional membership

$55

A special introductory rate in recognition of the ongoing difficulties of these times is reflected below. Residents of low income and lower middle income countries as defined by the World Bank may join at a special rate of $25.

Professional memberships are for working journalists, authors, editors, producers, public information officers, science-writing educators, and people who write and produce films, museum exhibits, and other material intended to inform the public about science and technology.

If your primary mailing address is in the United States, please use the U.S. application form instead.
