History of Academy of Petroleum Engineers

On April 7, 1994, Texas Tech University and the Bob L. Herd Department of Petroleum Engineering initiated the Academy of Petroleum Engineers.  It began with 17 charter members.  Today the total membership in the academy totals 120.

The Purpose of the Academy of Petroleum Engineers is three fold:

  • To recognize Petroleum Engineering graduates and other petroleum industry professionals who have made significant contributions to the profession and who, in doing so, have brought recognition to the Bob L. Herd Department of Petroleum Engineering at Texas Tech University.
  • To encourage and inspire the Petroleum Engineering program and students to achieve success in their selected fields of endeavor.  
  • To assist and support the Bob L. Herd Department of Petroleum Engineering in its efforts to seek and develop excellence in its programs.
