The Academic Association for Organizational Science is an academic society that was established in 1959. Our primary mission is to research 'organizations' from various standpoints, e.g. business management, economics, jurisprudence, public administration, psychology, behavioral science, engineering science, and business practice. It is our hope that our accumulated research results will contribute to the enhancement of your organization.
