“As we received feedback from students preparing and planning for a career in aviation/aerospace, their parents, and educators, we learned that there was no single Web site that helped students and parents navigate through the entire process of pursuing a career in aviation/aerospace,” said Sedgwick Hines, Executive Director of The AvScholars Network Foundation. “AvScholars.com has the content, resources, and tools that will help students and their parents with all phases of pursuing a higher education and career within the field of aviation/aerospace. AvScholars.com will become one of the premier Web sites for students interested in aviation/aerospace.”

AvScholars.com is a community effort. Some channels are still underdevelopment. This is your invitation to get involved as an advertiser/sponsor, content provider, message board moderator, and/or expert panelist. For more information, visit http://www.avscholars.com/contact.htm.
