or you can apply online via the Online Membership Application. Please bear in mind that after an application form is received, membership requires official election by the Governing Board of the American Institute of Physics. Upon approval, your organization will be billed for the annual dues (see below) and for any journals indicated on the application form.

Dues scale

The scale of the annual dues for Corporate Associate membership is graduated so that those organizations employing no or very few physicists pay the minimum dues, while those with a high interest in physics, as indicated by the number of physicists employed, contribute more.

The 2007 dues schedule is shown in the following table. Membership is for the calendar year.
