Rocket Project at UCLA is a student engineering team that teaches rocket engineering through hands-on exposure to the complete design-build-test cycle of engineering, giving students an opportunity to apply classroom subjects to a project with real-world challenges and thrilling results. We have formed a community outreach team dedicated to inspiring youth and promoting the STEM fields by sharing our love of rocketry and engineering.
Services Provided
Visits to local schools to talk to students about rocket engineering and then building and launching small 3D-printed rockets with them; hosting on-campus events to inspire students about rocket engineering; and collaborating with local non-profits and community-based organizations.
Who We Serve
Middle and high school students
Mission and Goals
We strive to promote inclusivity and diversity by structuring internal education pathways to make even the most complex problems approachable and by carrying out community outreach programs dedicated to inspiring the next generation of rocket engineers from all walks of life.
