Current Status:

Check again soon! Applications are typically open during early fall quarter.

While SARP is a rocketry team affiliated with the Aeronautics and Astronautics department of the College of Engineering, only about a third of our team members are studying Aerospace Engineering. Majors of students on SARP range from almost every type of engineering to Physics, Computer Science, and Business. Due to the complexity of our project, there will be expectations of members at all levels. New members interested in joining our team at an entry level are expected to put in an average of 10 hours per week.

While technical knowledge and experience will certainly help your application, our primary goal is to facilitate learning and bring on interested and committed members so please do not worry if you have little to no experience, we are here to change that! If you are passionate, own your work, and are ready to learn, please apply.

After you have submitted your application, we will contact you with a decision to offer an interview within two weeks. This application will close on October 1st at 11:59 PM. Applications may be considered past this date given heavily desired skills or SARP member referral!

Our Mission

SARP is an entirely student-run club at the University of Washington focused on building and flying high-powered solid and liquid bipropellant rockets.

SARP presents a hands-on, fast-paced, and endearingly scrappy opportunity for members to develop technical and professional skills outside of the classroom. Our key goals for the year are to fly Domecracker, our liquid bi-propellant rocket, at the Friends of Amateur Rocketry's Oxidizers Uninhibited Tournament (FAR-OUT) and to fly a student developed solid propellant rocket at the International Rocket Engineering Competition (IREC).
