AEROS Malaysia, the society bringing together Malaysia's aerospace community
Aerospace Society Malaysia connects academics, industry and students in aerospace, from conferences and a journal to programmes for schoolchildren.
Aerospace Society Malaysia (AEROS Malaysia) is a professional society for people involved in aerospace in the country. Its slogan is short: Toward Greater Heights.
According to its official website, AEROS's mission is to advance aerospace knowledge and research in Malaysia. Its vision is to be the main platform for collaboration between academia and industry in the field.
What AEROS does
AEROS organises activities in three main categories:
| Activity | Who it is for |
|---|---|
| Aerospace-themed programmes for children and schools | School pupils |
| Training workshops and consultancy services | Professionals and industry |
| Aerospace seminars and conferences | Researchers, academics and industry |
The society also publishes the AEROS Journal and conference proceedings, and works with the government and its agencies to carry out national policies related to the field. Another stated aim is to raise public awareness of aerospace.
The AEROS Conference, held every two years
The society's main event is the AEROS Conference, a biennial platform that brings together researchers and experts from universities, government and industry. The fifth edition, AEROS Conference 2025, took place on 13 December 2025 at DoubleTree by Hilton, Shah Alam, with the theme Exploring the New Frontier of Aerospace.
Papers presented covered three broad areas: aeronautics (including aerodynamics, aircraft systems and drones), astronautics (rockets, space missions and spacecraft design) and aviation (airline operations, airport management and air traffic control).
According to a post on its official Facebook page, AEROS also held its 8th Annual General Meeting in Putrajaya.
