The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) is the professional society for the field of aerospace engineering. The AIAA was founded in 1963 from the merger of two earlier societies: the American Rocket Society (ARS), founded in 1930 as the American Interplanetary Society (AIS), and the Institute of Aerospace Sciences (IAS), founded in 1932 as the Institute of Aeronautical Sciences.
The AIAA is the U.S. representative on the International Astronautical Federation and the International Council on the Aeronautical Sciences. As of 2004, the AIAA has more than 35,000 members. Despite its name, the society has members among aerospace professionals worldwide, although the majority are American and/or live in the United States. Some AIAA seminars and conventions are restricted to U.S. citizens, due to security issues.
The AIAA is split to seven regions, North-East, South-East, Central, South-Central, Mid-West, West, and International. The regions are subdivided into Sections, usually based in major cities. Universities with programs in aerospace engineering or related fields may form Student Branches, which are overseen and in part funded by their parent Section.
Another aspect of the AIAA is their standards writing activities. In the past, AIAA standards for aeronautics have been incorporated into broader standards and public laws. These standards help transition innovative aeronautical ideas to everyday usage.
The AIAA publishes nine technical journals, monthly general interest magazine, Aerospace America, and a series of technical books. It also organizes a number of conferences on space engineering.
AIAA Mission: AIAA advances the state of aerospace science, engineering, and technological leadership.
AIAA Vision: AIAA is the shaping, dynamic force in aerospace – The forum for innovation, excellence and global leadership.

University students can join one of more than 145 AIAA Student Branches, which now have over 5,000 members in 45 countries. You'll also find design competitions, scholarships, internships, research help, discounts on textbooks, and more. And for students still in elementary or high school, this is the place to learn about aerospace … get involved … get inspired … and have fun while you do it!
Kid's Place
Kids from 6 to 96, that is.
Fly the Wright Flyer simulation. Test drive interactive flight tools. Enjoy games, puzzles, fun experiments, teen-recommended books and movies, and more.

NASA’s new program, the interdisciplinary National Science Program Incorporating Research Education Experiences (INSPIRE) will encourage the future generation of explorers from the 9th through 12th grades to pursue an education and careers in the sciences, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields.
INSPIRE’s unique design allows those selected access to an On-Line Community, and once in the community, to complete for grade appropriate STEM experiences during the summer months, such as:
INSPIRE’s unique design allows those selected access to an On-Line Community, and once in the community, to complete for grade appropriate STEM experiences during the summer months, such as:
- A one-day VIP tour and workshop at a NASA facility.
- A two-week learning experience on the campus of a participating college or university.
- Paid summer internships at a NASA facility working with scientists and engineers as mentors.
INTERESTED? NASA will be accepting applications to join the On-Line Community in the fall. For the latest information about this exciting program, please visit NASA's Web site at: www.nasa.gov/education/INSPIRE.
Team America Rocketry Challenge
Registration Opens Arlington, Va. – As school doors swing open, students have a terrific opportunity to look forward to — the Team America Rocketry Challenge.
Registration is now open for the world’s largest rocket contest challenging participants to compete for $60,000 in prizes and scholarships and a trip to next year’s international air show in Paris.
The contest rules and registration are at www.rocketcontest.org. Participants must design and build a rocket that will climb to 750 feet and stay aloft for 45 seconds. This year’s new task is transporting the one-egg payload lying on its side rather than positioned vertically, mimicking the position of an astronaut.
Teams have until Dec.1 to register. April 6 is the deadline to conduct a qualifying launch and earn a trip to the finals, scheduled for May 16 at the Great Meadow in The Plains, Va. The registration fee is $105.
AIA sponsors the contest with the National Association of Rocketry, NASA, the Defense Department, the American Association of Physics Teachers and AIA member companies.
Students in grades 7-12 in any U.S. school or non-profit youth organization are eligible to compete. About 7,000 students from across the country took part in the contest last year, and since TARC’s first contest in 2003, almost 50,000 students have taken the challenge. A team from Enloe High School in North Carolina was crowned champion in 2008.
The contest gives future engineers the opportunity to demonstrate their math and physics skills. Working together in a team environment, they will design a real aerospace product, which will be put through the rigors of testing and evaluation.
The aerospace industry is actively looking for young people to join its ranks. The industry is facing a potential workforce crisis as scores of employees reach retirement age. According to AIA statistics, almost 60 percent of the U.S. aerospace workforce was age 45 or older in 2007.
