Since its founding in 1917, the American Association of Petroleum Geologists has strived "to foster scientific research, to advance the science of geology, to promote technology, and to inspire high professional conduct." Students can read the news publication, _Explorer_, and discover employment opportunities. Teachers can contribute to the development of a K-12 classroom resources webpage. The website features AAPG's leadership, conventions, annual meetings, and the Visiting Geologist Program, where students can meet with experienced geologists.
