About AIPG Wisconsin
The American Institute of Professional Geologists (AIPG), founded in 1963, is the largest association dedicated to promoting geology as a profession. It presently has more than 4,800 members in the U.S. and abroad, organized into 36 regional Sections. The Institute adheres to the principles of professional responsibility and public service and is the only international organization that certifies the competence and ethical conduct of geological scientists in all branches of the science with members employed in industry, government, and academia.
AIPG Wisconsin is the local chapter of AIPG, with approximately 100 members. We typically have a fall field trip, spring meeting, and special events
The 2009 Spring Field Trip in Door County was a Huge Success
