The American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical, and Petroleum Engineers (AIME) is a professional association for mining and metallurgy, with over 145,000 members.[1] The association was founded in 1871 by 22 mining engineers in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, and was one of the first national engineering societies in the country.

The association's charter is to "advance and disseminate, through the programs of the Member Societies, knowledge of engineering and the arts and sciences involved in the production and use of minerals, metals, energy sources and materials for the benefit of humankind."

It is the parent organization of four Member Societies, the Society for Mining, Metallurgy, and Exploration (SME), The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS), the Association for Iron and Steel Technology (AIST), and the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE). The organization is currently based in San Ramon, California.

History

Founded as the American Institute of Mining Engineers (AIME), the institute had a membership at the beginning of 1915 of over 5,000, made up of honorary, elected, and associate members. The annual meeting of the institute was held in February, with other meetings during the year as authorized by the council. The institute published three volumes of Transactions annually and a monthly Bulletin which appeared on the first of each month. The headquarters of the institute was in the Engineering Building in New York City.[2]

Following creation of the Petroleum Division in 1922, the Iron and Steel Division in 1928 and the Institute of Metals Division in 1933 the name of the society was changed in 1957 to the American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical and Petroleum Engineers. Three of the current member societies were then created from the divisions, increasing to four in 1974 when the Iron and Steel Society (ISS) was formed. In 2004 ISS merged with the Association of Iron and Steel Engineers (AISE) to form the Association for Iron and Steel Technology (AIST) whilst remaining a member society of AIME.

Awards

The society awards some 25 awards every year at the annual conference. In addition, the member societies also disburse their own awards, including the Percy Nicholls Award, awarded by SME jointly with American Society of Mechanical Engineers.

Presidents

The following individuals have held the position of President of this organization.[3]
