AIPN 2021 - 2022 Student Writing Competition

Make sure to mark your calendars!

For two decades, AIPN has sponsored a student writing competition that gives students an opportunity to showcase their research, be published in a leading industry journal and to attend one of AIPN's flagship events.

The competition is open to all full-time seniors in a four-year program and all graduate students enrolled at an accredited university. Essays should be an original work at editorial length (no more than 4,000 words, excluding footnotes) on any specific issue of the student's choice which is directly related to international petroleum negotiations, such as matters of contract, law, or policy.
