Rocketry
Design, build, and launch Harvard's first 10,000-foot IREC COTS rocket. Advance liquid-propulsion research through static fires and cold-flow tests, and expand Level 1 and Level 2 certification opportunities.
2026-27 Sponsorship Prospectus
Partner with Harvard students designing, building, and operating real aerospace systems.
Why sponsor HUAC?
HUAC brings together students building rockets, operating a satellite mission, and developing an autonomous UAV. Sponsorship helps turn ambitious engineering into hardware that can be tested, flown, and learned from.
Partners can connect with emerging engineers through recruiting, technical talks, design reviews, and other opportunities shaped around shared goals.
2026-27 priorities
Design, build, and launch Harvard's first 10,000-foot IREC COTS rocket. Advance liquid-propulsion research through static fires and cold-flow tests, and expand Level 1 and Level 2 certification opportunities.
Continue HUCSat mission operations, data analysis, and ground-station activities while developing future CubeSat concepts and payload technologies.
Build and evaluate the V2 unmanned aerial vehicle for the VFS Design-Build-Vertical-Flight competition, including the hardware, travel, and flight testing needed to compete.
Support also funds: rocket materials, avionics, recovery systems, satellite components, UAV hardware, manufacturing, safety, and competition travel.
