Diversity in Aviation
Diversity in Aviation, as in other industries, is essential. In the past, not many women or members of ethnic minority groups (i.e. African-American, Hispanics, Native-American, etc) pursued careers in aviation/aerospace or other related career fields (i.e. meteorology, astronomy, space exploration). In aviation, as in many other industries, many institutions and employers are actively recruiting women and minorities to create a diverse learning and work environment.

If you are a member of an ethnic minority group and/or woman, visit the Outreach Sectors on AvScholars.com. Learn more about various organizations, programs, and services offered for women and members of various ethnic minority groups. Parents and educators are also encouraged to browse the Outreach Sectors to assist in their children and students education. Each sector offers a wide range of information, resources, and interactive tools for each targeted audience.

The Outreach Sectors consist of:
Kids/Youth
Minorities
Women
Parents
Educators
