Student Chapter Funding Opportunities
L. Austin Weeks Undergraduate Grant Program
The AAPG Foundation's L. Austin Weeks (LAW) Undergraduate Grant program annually awards deserving undergraduate level geoscience students and student-led geoscience associations (student chapters, associations and clubs) with $500 grants.
These grants are intended to support the educational endeavors of undergraduate geoscience students and their student-led organizations. Thanks to generous contributors, including L. Austin Weeks and Marta Weeks-Wulf, the Foundation will grant funds to geoscience students and student organizations.
