Diversity in the Space Industry

Minority students and professionals that are seeking careers in the Aerospace industry are finding out that more opportunities exist then ever before. Minority graduate engineers and scientists are an important resource and Aerospace companies are competing to hire them before they even graduate. The minorities that exist in the Aerospace industry today are not only role models for students and professionals alike but they are paving the way for future minority engineers and scientists to follow in their footsteps.

Creating a diverse workforce is no longer a plan of action; it is a reality in most aerospace companies. Companies have long established diversity initiatives that insure that the recruiting and hiring of minority engineers and scientists is a priority. These initiatives include high school mentoring programs, college recruiting and minority engineering programs. Over the last twenty-five years these bold steps have led to opportunities for minorities that never existed before. Today there are more minorities in the aerospace workforce than any other time in the history of the space industry.

Aerospace companies are looking for qualified engineers and scientists from all technological fields to work on current and next generation aerospace projects. Never before has there been a greater need for engineering and science students along with professionals to enter these high-tech professions. The following pages spotlight the top Aerospace companies that exist today and the opportunities that await graduate engineers and scientists.
