Student and Faculty Lounge
- Date:
- Monday, 27 October – Wednesday, 29 October
- Time:
- During Exhibition Hours
- Fee:
- Included with conference registration
Students and faculty members, here’s something that’s guaranteed to help you enjoy your Cape Town experience even more: Special complimentary refreshments are provided to you each day in your own specially designated Student and Faculty Lounge.
This is a great place to meet with fellow students, to catch your breath, to develop career contacts with industry professionals and perhaps to start lifelong friendships – all while enjoying some snacks and drinks.
The price is right (you can’t beat complimentary, right?) and the career opportunities may be even better. So show your prospective employers you have good taste and know a good deal when you see one. This is one “lounge” that won't put you to sleep.

Students, this one is strictly for you!
There will be food, drink, networking and even a surprise or two that will be yours to enjoy at this year’s Student Reception. All registered students and faculty are invited to attend the event, where you’ll be greeted by AAPG and GSSA leaders plus officials from the Students Reception sponsor.
It’s a great opportunity to join AAPG; to learn about membership benefits; to learn about benefits of the student chapter program; to network while enjoying some terrific food and drink.
The top poster will be recognized with the Ozan Sungurlu Memorial Award for the Best International student Poster along with a certificate and monetary award. The top oral presentation will be recognized with the Carlos Walter M. Campos Memorial Award for Best International Student Paper along with a plaque and monetary award.
And besides that, it’s a great opportunity to have some fun. Don’t miss out!
