FAA's Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) Aviation and Space Education (AVSED) Program has been an integral part of FAA outreach and the national education system for decades. The program was established to expose students to aviation and aerospace careers and to promote STEM education.

With the support of numerous partners in the public and private sectors, we reach out to students around the world so they can learn more about civil and commercial aviation as well as the critical role that science, technology, engineering, and math plays in a young aviator's future.

Learn about the programs we offer to students at elementary, middle school, and high school levels.
