University Aviation Association

Nominations are now open for the 2026 UAA Board of Trustees. This is your chance to make a significant impact on your association and the aviation profession. Each year, UAA members elect individuals to our governing Board, which includes five Officers and fifteen Trustees representing both academic institutions and the wider industry.

Nominations are being accepted for five (5) Board of Trustees positions:
  • Treasurer - 2 year term
  • Secretary - 2 year term
  • Educator Trustee - 2 positions, 3 year term 
  • Industry Trustee - 2 position, 3 year term
  • Member at Large - 1 position, 3 year term

Please be advised that all board positions are determined by a vote of the UAA membership. The opening date of the election will be at the UAA Collegiate Aviation Education Conference, from October 1st to 3rd, 2025, in OC/Costa Mesa, CA. Online voting will close on October 15th. Successful candidates will officially join the Board of Trustees on January 1, 2026.
 

Important Considerations: 
  • You are welcome to nominate yourself for a position.
  • Please note that submitting a nomination does not automatically guarantee a place on the final ballot.
  • The nominations committee strives to develop a well-rounded ballot representative of membership as a whole and without duplicate college or institution representation among trustees. 

Don’t miss this chance to play a pivotal role in shaping the trajectory of aviation education and the UAA! Your expertise and vision can help steer the association towards a bright future.
