ISE membership dues cover a 24-month period, which begins during the month in which you register.  Membership benefits include the option to receive updates on relevant conference, career, and scholarship opportunities, networking opportunities with other members worldwide, online discussion fora, and discounted Congress registration. As of August 2008, the ISE bases membership dues on (self-declared) annual income. The ISE encourages membership fee waivers in exchange for in-kind contributions to the Society.
