The 10th annual Rocky Mountain Rendezvous (RMR), one of five regional job fairs sponsored by the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG), will be Sept. 30-Oct. 3 at the University of Wyoming.

The RMR offers an opportunity for geoscience students from across the United States to visit with oil, gas and environmental industry representatives and showcase their work. A record 225 students attended last year's RMR. Deadline for registration and submission of abstracts and resumes is midnight Friday, Sept. 23.

Participating companies support a number of activities, including field trips, short courses, resume and interviewing workshops, technical poster presentations, receptions and dinners, as well as formal interviews.

Chevron, Shell, ExxonMobil, Anadarko, Encana Oil and Gas, BP Corporation, ConocoPhillips and Schlumberger will be among the companies with representatives at this year's RMR.

Sponsored by the AAPG, one of the world's largest professional geological societies, the RMR is sanctioned by the Society of Exploration Geophysicists, a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the science of geophysics and the education of exploration geophysicists, and the Geological Society of America, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the advancement of the geosciences.
