The Malaysian Nuclear Society (MNS) is a non-government organization aiming at promoting the development and dissemination of information on nuclear science and technology (nst); providing objective views/ advice on matters relating to nst; and promoting cooperation among members and other organizations of similar objectives.

It was formed as Nuclear Science Society (Persatuan Sains Nuklear Malaysia, PESAN) in 1989, operating in the state of Selangor and Wilayah Persekutuan (Kuala Lumpur), Malaysia.

With the expansion of its members to more than seven states in Malaysia in 1994, it was renamed the Malaysian Nuclear Society (MNS).

Currently, MNS enjoys the support of over 140 members in the government, private, and corporate sectors (as corporate member) and maintains two international linkages with the American Nuclear Society (ANS) and the Canadian Nuclear Society (CNS).
