The AE club at UAA

The Architecture and Engineering club at the University of Alaska Anchorage

The AE club is a UAA student club focusing on "hands on" experience while assisting Habitat for Humanity in their mission to eliminate substandard housing. The AE club is open to any and all UAA students carrying 3 credits that are interested in doing service work. We raise most of our travel money through donations and fundraising events. We travel every year to different parts of the country during the two weeks between the spring and summer semesters. This year we travelled to Miami, the area first hit by Hurricane Katrina, from May 5th to the 19th. In 2009 we will travel to the Galveston / Houston area from May 4-18.
