European Association of Aerospace Students
The European Association of Aerospace Students or EUROAVIA is an international student association aimed to stimulate the co-operation between European students interested in aeronautics and astronautics and to promote their interests and their connexions with the main players of the European aerospace industry[1] such as the European Space Agency,[2] Airbus,[3] GMV Innovating Solutions,[4] and other institutions.[5][6]
EUROAVIA was founded in 1959 in Aachen, Germany, and it was originally composed by 8 local groups: Aachen, Berlin, Braunschweig, Delft, Paris, Pisa, Stuttgart and Torino.[7] Today, EUROAVIA is officially registered in Delft, the Netherlands, and it is composed of 38 local groups in 19 European countries, counting a total of more than 2000 members. [8]
The organization of the association is centered in the International Board, which is responsible for coordinating the association, representing it on international events and preparing it for the future. The help in those tasks there are several international working groups: News, Newsletter, Central Archive, Young Engineers, Statutes and Bylaws, and Alumni Network. Finally, there are the Affiliated Societies, which are responsible of the activities of the association at local level.[9]
Local groups[edit]
There are local groups of EUROAVIA holding the status of Affiliated Society (AS) in the following cities: Aachen, Ankara, Athens, Belgrade, Berlin, Braunschweig, Bremen, Bucarest, Budapest, Cluj-Napoca, Covilha, Delft, Dresden, Hamburg, Helsinki, Istanbul, Kyiv, Leuven, Lisboa, Madrid, Milano, Munich, Napoli, Ostend, Palermo, Paris, Patras, Pisa, Rzeszów, Seville, Stuttgart, Terrassa, Tolouse, and Zagreb.
Currently, the groups in Cadiz, Manchester, Haifa and Valencia, hold the status of Possible Affiliated Society (PAS), which means they are following the process to become affiliated societies of EUROAVIA. Also, there is a group in Kourou which holds the status of Adjunct Member (AM) since it is located in an European territory outside the European geographical borders (French Guiana). Former local groups of EUROAVIA, now extincted, were in London, Southampton, Haarlem, Stockholm, Vienna, Warsaw and Turin.
The following table shows the universities related to the current affiliated societies (AS) of EUROAVIA.
