1. Introduction

EUROAVIA

EUROAVIA, the European Association of Aerospace Students, is a European based students’ initiative whose main fields of activity are aerospace, engineering and the adjacent fields. The goals of EUROAVIA are:

  1. To promote European cooperation in the aerospace field by providing opportunities for its members to meet, exchange and learn at all levels.

  2. To internationally represent European aerospace students.

  3. To acquaint student members with their future working environment stimulating contacts with the industry.

As stated in the Statutes, we might refer to EUROAVIA as “the Association”.

Membership and structure

The Association is formed by ordinary and non-ordinary members:

  • Ordinary members, called as Affiliated Societies (AS), are local, Europe-based, incorporated associations of students interested in the aerospace sector, acting under the name of EUROAVIA, which have applied for membership with the Board of the Association, and which have been admitted as ordinary members of the Association by the General Meeting.

  • Non-ordinary members, called as Adjunct Members (AM), are local, non-Europe-based, incorporated associations of students interested in the aerospace sector, acting under the name of EUROAVIA, which have applied for membership with the Board of the Association, and which have been admitted as non-ordinary members of the Association by the General Meeting.

Prospective members enrolled in the procedure of acquisition of the full membership will be named Prospective Affiliated Societies (PAS) and Prospective Adjunct Member (PAM). Refer to chapter 2 for further information.

The structure of the Association is composed by four main organisms:

  1. The Local Groups (LG), that include all (P)AS/(P)AM within EUROAVIA.

  2. The Working Groups (WG), defined in the chapter 5.6 of the Bylaws.

  3. The International Board (IB), defined in the chapter 5.2 of the Bylaws.

  4. The EUROAVIA Congress, defined in the chapter 5.1 of the Bylaws.

Bylaws

The purpose of the Bylaws is to provide necessary procedures for running EUROAVIA at an international level. This document, however, also adds some additional, more detailed organisational points if necessary.

Policies

The EUROAVIA policies are formal documents that describe a set of rules, responsibilities, processes, and timelines that dictate the Association´s actions towards a specific topic.

The EUROAVIA policies are:

  1. Data Protection Policy;

  2. Sexual Harassment Policy;

  3. Corporate Identity.

For a policy to be implemented, it must be presented and voted in the General Meeting with a simple majority (fifty percent (50%) of the votes plus one (1)).
