The Electrochemical Society (ECS) celebrates GE Aerospace Research, our
Institutional Partner for an extraordinary 71 years! Since 1955, its patron-level support has helped sustain the Society and advance its mission.
GE Aerospace Research has conducted industrial research for more than 130 years, building on a legacy that traces from early electrical innovation associated with Thomas Edison to current work in connected aircraft engine technologies. Today, the organization brings together more than 750 scientists and engineers across 30 laboratories and more than 50 technical capabilities, reflecting a broad multidisciplinary approach to aerospace research and development.
The organization’s work is focused on advancing technologies relevant to the future of flight, including improvements in engine performance, fuel efficiency, durability, and sustainability. Research areas include artificial intelligence and machine learning for aerospace applications, development of advanced materials and coatings, hybrid electric and hypersonic propulsion concepts, and technologies that support engine services and fleet operations. This work spans both foundational research and applied development, with an emphasis on translating technical advances into practical aerospace solutions.
For the electrochemistry community, GE Aerospace Research’s activities include advanced materials, protective coatings, and surface engineering to improve performance in demanding aerospace environments. Related efforts also include electrification, sensing and diagnostics, corrosion and degradation behavior, and the study of materials under extreme thermal and chemical conditions.
