About the APS
The American Polar Society is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that welcomes individual and corporate members. This includes current, former, and future scientists, policy makers and diplomats, teachers, artists and writers, indigenous populations, tourists, manufacturers of gear and equipment, animal lovers, and anyone else interested in the two polar regions.
Our volunteers are updating and enhancing our members’ experience with a dynamic new interactive website, our magazine, and biannual meetings and symposia. Check back for exciting developments!
