In execution of its mission, AIME operates under a quasi-foundation model, with principal activities of capturing oral histories that honor the AIME legacy and recognize outstanding members and promising students, conferring awards and scholarships, and milestone recognition. AIME also distributes funds to support its Member Societies' missions and facilitates interaction with the relevant scientific and engineering community.

Awards
Many of these carry the namesake of icons within the AIME disciplines of mining, metallurgical, and petroleum engineering, the iron and steel industry, and materials science.
Scholarships
AIME supports the development of the next generation of professionals by funding both undergraduate and graduate scholarships.
Milestone Recognition
AIME recognizes important milestones in the organization's history as well as for its Member Societies and their sections.
Collaborative Efforts
