Grants-in-Aid
The purpose of the AAPG Foundation's Grants-in-Aid program is to foster research in the geosciences. Grants are made to provide financial assistance to graduate students (currently enrolled in Masters or Ph.D. programs) whose thesis research has application to the search for and development of petroleum and energy-mineral resources, and/or to related environmental geology issues.
Grants are based on merit, and in part, on the financial needs of the applicant.
Factors weighed in selecting successful applicants include:
- the qualifications of an applicant as indicated by past performance; originality and imagination of the proposed project; support of the department in which the work is being done; and perceived significance of the project to petroleum, energy minerals and related environmental geology.
Grants range from $500 to $2,000 and are to be applied to expenses directly related to the student's thesis work, such as field work, laboratory analyses, etc.
