The Armenian Engineers and Scientists Association is pleased to announce the inaugural graduating class from the Aerospace Engineering Master’s Program, developed in collaboration with the National Polytechnic University of Armenia and Engineering City. This milestone marks a significant step forward in advancing Armenia’s role in the global aerospace industry.
The Aerospace Engineering Master’s Program, developed in collaboration with the National Polytechnic University of Armenia, aims to prepare engineers to design aerospace systems including UAVs, satellites, ground stations, as well as electronics, embedded systems, and RF devices for a wide range of applications. Andranik Agahajanyan, who leads the Industry Based Education System at Engineering City, has played a key role in shaping a rigorous academic curriculum and an industry aligned training model. With a mission to equip Armenia’s brightest students with the skills needed to thrive in the global aerospace sector, the program is already proving to be transformative.
This inaugural graduating class represents not just academic success but also a bold statement that Armenia is ready to take flight in the high-tech aerospace arena.

This historic moment was made possible thanks to the generosity of supporters from around the world. At AESA’s 40th Anniversary Gala in 2023, donors were asked to give specifically to support the advancement of aerospace engineering in Armenia. Their response was both inspiring and impactful.
The funds raised at the Gala provided critical resources such as scholarships, laboratory equipment, and instructional support for the Aerospace Engineering Master’s Program. This is a true example of the power of community and the enduring bond between the Armenian diaspora and Armenia’s future.
While this graduation is a proud milestone, it is only the beginning. The future success of this program and other STEM initiatives in Armenia depends on sustained support from individuals who believe in Armenia’s potential.
We invite you to contribute and help expand opportunities for the next generation of Armenian engineers and scientists.
Your donation helps build more than a program. It helps build Armenia’s future.
