IADC is pleased to welcome two new universities joining our Student Chapter program! IADC Student Chapters have been officially established at The University of Texas Permian Basin in Midland, Texas and the University of Boumerdes in Boumerdes, Algeria. Our Student Chapter program now has a network of 20 different Chapters present at universities and learning institutions throughout the world. 

About IADC Student Chapters 

IADC’s Student Chapter program was started in 2017 when the need for a formal vehicle for engaging with the next generation of young professionals was identified. At that time, students were also expressing a desire for opportunities to engage with the drilling industry while still in school. The IADC Student Chapter program serves as a supplement to the academic aspect provided by the universities. The Chapters provide unique opportunities for students to learn about the practical side of the industry and their future professions. These opportunities generally consist of attending conferences, rig tours, and other industry events.
