welcome
APEGGA and its members recognize that engineering, science and technology are important to Canada’s future. To succeed in the future and compete in world markets, we need to employ science and technology today and provide an ongoing supply of qualified science professionals.
To this end, the Association and its members are working with Alberta universities, industry and government to help ensure that the value of science and technology, and the impact of engineering, geology and geophysics on the lives of Albertans, is understood and appreciated.
By bringing attention to its professions through a variety of programs and activities, APEGGA encourages and nurtures an interest in engineering, science, math and technology in students and the general public.
