The aviation industry faces a shortage of available talent for all positions. This shortage is complicated by the demand from all industries for individuals with specific skillsets needed now and in the future. Join us as we discuss how the community can work together to ensure that students and workers have the education and training they need to maintain the high standards of engineering excellence demanded by the industry.

This panel of experts will consider how the aviation industry is reacting to current challenges, including downturn in demand and extended life of platforms. They’ll also reflect on opportunities provided, including shifting government and industry roles, and engineering support to product operations.
This event will see aerospace industry leaders sharing their experiences of implementing and promoting allyship during their careers. Panelists who identify with minority groups will speak about encountering allyship and how it can play a crucial role in enabling them to thrive at work and otherwise.
The Innovation Stage @ the HUB
Cybersecurity across the aerospace sector greatly benefits from the increased collaboration between government, industry, and hackers that has been kick-started by a grassroots effort to build trust between key stakeholders. Join this presentation to understand the change in attitude seen across government and industry increasing their willingness to engage with security researchers. Learn how a simple idea is growing more engagements with these key stakeholders. You should come away with an appreciation of the value these efforts provide to creating a workforce that is capable of addressing future cybersecurity challenges across the aviation industry.
In conjunction with the 2022 AIAA AVIATION Forum (27 June–1 July)
Join AIAA leadership at the 2nd Annual Leadership Symposium as we focus on how disruption change results in growth and impact. AIAA President-Elect Laura McGill, AIAA Executive Director Dan Dumbacher, and other members of the Board of Trustees and the Council of Directors will provide insight on the Institute’s vision and strategic trajectory as we move forward. As a leader in the organization, we invite you to collaborate across divisions and committees by sharing best practices and institutional knowledge to help both new and experienced leaders have productive and engaging experiences.
The following leaders are invited to join us for this event: AIAA Board of Trustees; Council of Directors; Leaders and Deputies of TAD, IOD, READ; Board Directed Committee Chairs; Section Chairs and respective council members; Technical Committee Chairs; and Student Branch Chairs.
Join fellow Students and Young Professionals to test your knowledge of aerospace trivia, have the chance to win cool prizes, and meet new people. Light snacks will be provided.
The density and diversity of airspace operations is likely to change significantly with developments related to drones, eVTOLs, sTOLs, advanced air mobility, supersonics, and commercial space transportation. NASA, the FAA, and industry are keen on ensuring that future airspace operations will continue to scale to accommodate the diversity and density in the same manner. The panel will discuss the lessons learned from current air traffic operations and unmanned aircraft system traffic management and identify various capabilities that need to be developed to prepare for the future in a safe manner.
One of the most daunting challenges facing the global aviation industry revolves around sustainability. NASA Aeronautics technology leadership will discuss several critical initiatives in its aviation sustainability strategy. These initiatives directly address accelerating the implementation of technologies that focus on key sustainability barriers including hybrid-electric propulsion, advanced composite manufacturing, advanced configurations, and propulsion systems. Join NASA leadership as they discuss these crucially important sustainable aviation topics.
