WELCOME BACK TO AN EXCITING NEW YEAR
Welcome to the home of the UMD Student Chapter of AIAA!!!
The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) is the professional society for aerospace engineering. Here at the University of Maryland, we have one of the largest and most active student branches on the East Coast.
We offer students interested in the aerospace field a chance to meet other students with similar interests, the opportunity to hear aerospace-related guest speakers, and to participate in a variety of activities, including field trips, group projects, and social events.
