Our History
The Atlantic Provinces Inter-University Committee on the Sciences (APICS) was founded to encourage collaboration across Maritime universities and the government sector. We are best known for our student conferences which are attended by over 800 undergrads, graduates, and faculty annually. These events offer students a variety of opportunities that help propel them closer to achieving their academic and professional goals.
