The University of Arizona AIAA student chapter has two intro project categories: beta rockets and beta flyers. In addition, we work closely with two competition teams: Design Build Fly and the Spaceport America Cup.

Beta Rocket

The beta rocket program lets students simulate, build, and launch their very own mid to high power rockets.


Design Build Fly

Design Build Fly is an international competition in which students put their engineering knowledge to the test to create an RC aircraft meeting a set of specific requirements. 


Personal Scratch Build Gliders

The gliders program gives students the opportunity to design, craft, and customize small gliders and RC planes.


International Rocket Engineering Competition

IREC is an international competition where students compete to build large scale rockets that can reach 30,000 feet and above.
