About UNSW Aviation Society

The UNSW Aviation Society, called AvSoc, is a student club at the University of New South Wales in Australia. The site says it is a club affiliated with Arc, the student body. It is for students studying the Bachelor of Aviation. The site describes it as Australia's largest university student-led aviation organisation.

AvSoc says it aims to bridge the gap between university and industry. It runs events that connect students with aviation companies. These include networking nights, company panels, workshops and social events.

The club's events include barbecues, a careers expo, an end-of-year ball, party buses, road trips, case competitions and an aviation international study abroad program. The site says the first study tour went to Korea in 2018. That tour coincided with an Air Transport Research Society conference.

The careers expo features aviation businesses and organisations. The site lists companies that attended the 2018 expo. They include the Australian Federal Police, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority, Menzies Aviation, Qantas, the Royal Aeronautical Society, Singapore Airlines, Sydney Airport and Virgin Australia.

The study tour visited airports and companies, including Incheon International Airport, Korea Airports Corporation, Korean Air, Jeju National University and UBjet Aviation. The site also says the club has an executive committee with a president, vice presidents, a secretary, a treasurer and directors for events, marketing, education and flying.

The club uses Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube and TikTok. The site has pages for joining, events, a first year guide and publications. Its contact page asks people to use the mail address listed there. The site includes an acknowledgement of the Bedegal, Darug and Eora peoples.
