ISTAT Foundation: What's New

Announcing the AerCap Scholarship Fund

We’re pleased to announce the establishment of the AerCap Scholarship Fund as part of the ISTAT Foundation’s 30th anniversary celebration. This scholarship fund demonstrates AerCap’s commitment to nurturing and contributing to the future growth of the aviation industry, in partnership with the ISTAT Foundation.

The AerCap Scholarship will be awarded to a student pursuing an undergraduate or graduate degree in an aviation-related field such as engineering, aircraft finance, and leasing or aviation law at a U.S. university. You can learn more about the ISTAT Foundation Scholarship program and view a full list of named scholarships here.

AerCap’s generous contribution is a perfect example of how your support during the 30th anniversary can help us ensure continued growth and innovation in commercial aviation, delivering essential resources to empower students and future industry leaders to reach new heights.

Over the past 30 years, the ISTAT Foundation has emerged as an instrumental force in the commercial aviation sector, with a remarkable cumulative investment of more than US$6.2 million in scholarships and educational programs, reaching more than 1,000 aviation-passionate students around the world. Thank you to all the companies and individual donors who have supported this campaign to date. We encourage you to add your name to this growing list by making a donation today!
