Things to Do When You’re a Teleworking Aerospace Engineer or Aerospace Engineering Student
Many aerospace organizations are having their employees work from home to keep communities, especially the most vulnerable members, safe and healthy. AIAA applauds and supports this decision.
We encourage everyone to follow safety guidelines as set out by the WHO and CDC.
We understand you still have work to do and may be looking for new ways to connect while you telecommute. We can help.
If you’re a teleworking aerospace professional and have children at home, AIAA has some suggestions to keep your budding aerospace engineer busy.

I predict that the research themes won’t vary much from what we saw in the Biden years and the first Trump administration. These themes — artificial intelligence, electric flight, biofuels, hypersonic weapons, extending society into space — do not depend solely on the United States, and they are governed by market forces and security needs that are beyond the control of any single administration.” Full Story
