74 Years of Tradition
Alpha Eta Rho (AHP) was founded on the campus of the University of Southern California on April 10, 1929 by Earl W. Hill with the mission of spreading the joy of aviation to like-minded individuals. AHP continued to grow in size and reputation, eventually making its way to Florida Tech in 1974 and beginning our Sigma Alpha chapter that we know today. We pride ourselves on keeping our legacy alive by expanding our chapter, giving back to our community, and promoting aviation as a whole. We encourage you to come be apart of our community and look forward to fostering a new generation of Alpha Eta Rho at Florida Tech.
What is AHP?
Alpha Eta Rho is a nationwide, professional co-ed aviation fraternity. The Sigma Alpha chapter is proud to be the largest in the world with over 80 active members. We work tirelessly to promote our motto “Collegiate Aviation Leaders of Today... Aviation Industry Leaders of Tomorrow” while enjyoing the brother and sisterhood our fraternity offers. The Sigma Alpha chapter at the Florida Institute of Technology fosters lifelong friendships while maintaining the highest level of professionalism.
Vision
