About Field Camp Scholarship
Introducing the next generation to the wonders of geoscience — from the classroom to the field.
Supporting Undergraduate Geoscience Students
The AAPG Foundation Field Camp Scholarship program will provide eligible and deserving undergraduate level geoscience students with a one-time $3,000 grant. Thanks to generous contributors, including L. Austin Weeks and Marta Weeks-Wulf, the Foundation will proudly grant more than $180,000 in funds to geoscience students to help cover the cost to attend field camp.

From Our Recipients
"I would like to thank you all so much for selecting me for this generous field camp award. It has eased an immense financial burden, and I cannot thank you enough. Winning this award has allowed me the ability to study some of the most intricate geology in the world and the ability to do so stress free. For that I am extremely grateful." Kaiden Sykes
"I wanted to thank you for your generous support in helping me attend field camp. I am going to use the knowledge I gain from field camp to help me pursue my career in hydrology. Thank you again for your generosity and support. I will never forget this gift, and I will work hard to one day give back – so that future generations of geologists can share in this same privilege." Anna Heikes
"Thank you for selecting me as a recipient of the AAPG Foundation Field Camp Scholarship. As a geology student, I expected to learn about rocks, minerals, faults, folds, intrusions, among many other concepts, but what I didn't expect was the incredible and supportive community that geologists have built. Many students like myself, work while studying and receiving this scholarship means more time and energy to focus on gaining hands-on experience during field camp. Thank you for giving students the gift of time and the opportunity to do science … and investing in the future of young geoscientists like me." Paola Salas Rivera
