AASRT is a scholarly association connecting researchers, engineers, and educators worldwide — publishing peer-reviewed journals, convening research forums, and building the professional pathways that carry ideas from the lab into practice.
AASRT publishes a family of peer-reviewed journals spanning the physical sciences, engineering, and emerging technology. Every submission moves through a disciplined editorial process built to protect rigor without slowing discovery.
Every manuscript is evaluated by independent subject-matter reviewers with identities withheld on both sides, protecting the integrity of the assessment.
Accepted papers are published under Creative Commons licensing, making findings freely available to researchers and institutions worldwide.
Journals are catalogued across major scholarly databases, with permanent DOIs assigned to every published article.
Authors work with a dedicated editor from submission through revision, with clear timelines at every stage of review.
AASRT convenes researchers across disciplines and borders — annual congresses, regional symposia, and focused working forums where unpublished work is presented, challenged, and refined.
Annual and regional conferences bring together academics, industry researchers, and graduate scholars for multi-day technical programs.
Accepted conference papers are compiled into indexed proceedings, giving presented research a lasting scholarly record.
Programs feature invited addresses from senior researchers alongside panel discussions on emerging and contested questions in the field.
Structured sessions connect early-career researchers with established investigators across institutions and countries.

Research careers are built as much through skill and mentorship as through publication. AASRT's development programs connect members to structured learning, certification, and guidance at every career stage.
Structured, hands-on programs in research methods, technical writing, and applied technology, each concluding in a recognized certificate.
Early-career researchers are paired with senior members for guided, one-on-one professional and research mentorship.
Ongoing virtual sessions on research tools, funding strategy, and technical communication, open to members worldwide.
A standing library of guidance on grant writing, academic publishing, and the transition between research and industry roles.
Founded to strengthen the exchange of scientific and technical knowledge across institutions and borders, AASRT operates as a nonprofit scholarly body governed by an elected board of active researchers. Our mandate is simple: protect the integrity of published research, and give every member the forums and training to advance their work.
Membership includes journal access, conference registration rates, and every professional development program AASRT runs throughout the year.
