Club Mission

PAC is the University of Pennsylvania’s student community of aerospace engineers, researchers, and enthusiasts. We are one of the most dynamic, fastest growing, and visible student groups at Penn. We offer students a hands-on project oriented experience and guide them towards aerospace technology innovation.

The club is divided into four subteams: Rocket, Balloon, Aircraft, and Jet Propulsion. As the primary aerospace-focused group on campus, PAC is comprised of the best aerospace talent Penn has to offer. We serve a wide audience, with over 150 members, and the club continues to grow every semester with new recruits.

Applications to Subteams are open at the beginning of Fall and Spring semester.

For questions pertaining to specific subteams, please feel free to reach out to our team leads:

Co-Directors: Meiling (meissimo@seas.upenn.edu) and Kayla (kbleier@seas.upenn.edu)

Question: What's the interview process like? Is it competitive? - Anonymous
The interview process varies based on which team(s) you apply to, but interviews tend to be non-technical and low-stress. We know many applicants don't have a high-level of technical knowledge in the discipline, so we specifically cater interviews to touch on other important areas such as dedication/passion, ability to learn new skills, and leadership. The interview process can be competitive depending on the year/team.

Question: Do I need to have any previous experience in aerospace or engineering? - Anonymous
No! In fact, most of our students haven't done anything with aerospace before they joined the club. The most important quality for a potential new member is a willingness to dedicate themselves to the club.
