Individual membership is ideal for professionals, students, and retired persons working to advance the science and practice of conserving Earth’s biodiversity, including conservation and social scientists, researchers, practitioners, policy makers, educators, and students. Individuals select from the following membership types:

  • Professional: Ideal for conservation professionals in the natural and and social sciences, including scientists, researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and educators. 
  • Student: From undergraduates to masters students and PhD candidates, student memberships are for individuals enrolled in an institution of higher education. 
  • Retired: For individuals who are retired from full time work as a conservation professional.
  • Lifetime: Life members pay a one time fee to belong to SCB for their entire career, including retirement.

Organizational Memberships  offer organizations the opportunity to join the Society. Organizational members are non-profit businesses, such as non-governmental environmental organizations, universities and colleges, zoos and aquariums, and government agencies that include conservation or science as part of their mission statement or work.
