The mission of SAE Aero @ Illinois is to provide students at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a collaborative and educational environment to develop real-world engineering skills related to the aerospace sector through hands-on engineering, business, and leadership experiences. The organization aims to bring in a diverse group of students to design, construct, and test large scale remote-controlled and autonomous aircraft to compete in the annual SAE Aero Design competition sponsored by the Society of Automotive Engineers.
