Outreach & Partnerships

The University of Michigan Department of Aerospace Engineering is dedicated to connecting with the K-12 community. Throughout the year we engage with young students and educators through various outreach events within our state of the art facility, the François-Xavier Bagnoud (FXB) Building, and off-site at local elementary, middle, and high schools. We are always looking for new opportunities to inspire future rocket scientists. Contact Liza Roberts to learn more.

Outreach Initiatives

Aerospace Day

Every semester, the Department of Aerospace Engineering hosts Aerospace Day. Aerospace Day, the Department’s biggest outreach event. Student project teams will be showcasing their projects and leading interactive activities with young students, and the Engineering 100 blimp competition and Aero 205 hovercraft competition will be held in the atrium. This is an exciting opportunity to learn more about the Aerospace Department and the opportunities it offers, and to excite visiting students who are interested in aerospace engineering! Dates change from year to year so please check the Aerospace Calendar for dates and times.

Aerospace Day at the University of Michigan has become the department’s biggest outreach event, bringing in young students from across Michigan. It’s a great way to meet and connect with the next generation of aerospace engineers!
