AIAA is pleased to announce it has provisionally chartered five new student branches at the AIAA Council of Directors meeting during AIAA SciTech Forum 2026 in Orlando, Florida.
The five new student branches have been granted three-year provisional charters to ensure they are sustainable before being officially chartered as a student branch. The universities include:
- Baylor University – Waco, Texas
- South Dakota State University – Brookings, South Dakota
- University of Texas Permian Basin – Odessa, Texas
- Wilbur Wright College – Chicago, Illinois
- Zewail City Science and Technology – Cairo, Egypt
“It’s an exciting moment as we welcome these new student branches to AIAA – bringing our total to 268. By expanding our global network reaching more students, we are enriching our community. We’re eager to see the impact these future leaders will have on the aerospace industry,” said AIAA CEO Clay Mowry.
