What we Do
UVic Aero competes in the AEAC National UAS competition every year. Our clubs focus is in research and development of UAVs to compete in these competitions. We strive to provide members an opportunity to compete at a national level in front of Canadas most innovative aeronautical engineering firms. These competitions are taken very seriously, as it is an opportunity to give back and represent our sponsors, school, and community. We aim to make a meaningful impact within our local and broader community. Sucess is essential to building recognition – and greater recognition enables us to create even more opportunities.
UVic Center for Aerospace Research
The University of Victoria’s Center for Aerospace Research (CFAR) is supported through government grants and contracts. The goals and aspirations of UVic AERO directly align with that of CFAR, fostering a strong enduring partnership. Our team is deeply grateful for the opportunity and experience CFAR has provided over the years, volunteering their time and equipment to our club, as well as allowing us the opportunity to tour their state of the art facilities. CFAR’s rapid prototyping capabilities, electronics lab, composites fabrication, along with the involvement of graduate and undergraduate students, have helped solidify UVic AERO as a top contender in aerospace competitions and the job market alike.
SPONSORS
We cannot thank you enough for the help! UVIC AERO could not exist without the help of our sponsors and gracious donors.
