Thank you for joining Aviation Club for the 2023-24 school year. We’re striving to work new special programming into
As mentioned on our home page, we are the only club at Northwestern dedicated to aviation’s social and professional aspects. We hope that, by bringing Northwestern students together, we will foster an inclusive space for Wildcats of all different relationships with and knowledge of aviation and the aviation industry will feel included. By helping students connect and with active members of the aviation industry, we aim to foster students’ interest in aviation and pursue a career in it if they so choose (but don’t worry; if you’re not going into aviation, you’re still more than welcome to join us).
Our Mission Statement
Our goals are to create a welcoming environment where Northwestern students can ignite, explore, and expand upon our passion for aviation. We hope to help students explore aviation and the aviation industry through new lenses like airline management and finance, aerospace engineering, flight and airport operations, logistics, and more. We also hope to create a network of aviation professionals that can help Northwestern students pursue careers in aviation by building connections, finding internships and careers, and fulfilling the requirements to apply with airlines, airports, manufacturers, and consultants. We hope to create a strong community of students who can expand their knowledge of aviation, express themselves, and build new personal friendships through shared experience, passion, and expertise.
