We aspire to cultivate within our members:

Community among Jumbos with a shared passion for aerospace and discovery of the unknown. Our chapter aims to foster a welcoming home for aerospace learners and engineers while facilitating an environment that helps students to develop technical, project-based skills through engagement in hands-on projects, engineering competitions, and outreach activities.

Curiosity and the desire to explore aerospace and the region beyond. Our techical projects invoke innovation and creativity, allowing us to develop new technologies and approaches to problem-solving.

Collaboration and interpersonal skills, prioritizing the ability to overcome political, cultural, and linguistic barriers and collaborate towards a shared goal.
