American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics - The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) is the scholarly society for the field of aerospace engineering. Founded in 1963, the AIAA succeeded two engineering societies: the American Interplanetary Society (AIS) later known as the American Rocket Society (ARS), founded in 1930, and the Institute of Aeronautical Sciences (IAS), founded in 1932.

American Institute Fair (1829) - The American Institute Fair was held annually from 1829 until at least 1879 in New York City by the American Institute. The American Institute was founded in 1829 "for the encouragement of agriculture, commerce, manufactures, and the arts.

American Institute of Electrical Engineers - The American Institute of Electrical Engineers was a United States based organization of electrical engineers that existed between 1884 and 1963 (when it merged with the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE)). The 1884 founders of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (AIEE) included some of the most prominent inventors and innovators in the then new field of electrical engineering, among them Thomas Alva Edison, Elihu Thomson, Edwin Houston, and Edward Weston.

Institute of Latin American Studies - The Institute of Latin American Studies (ILAS) was set up in 1965 at the University of London, with the objective of providing postgraduate level teaching and a focus for research on the literature, history, politics and economics of Latin America and the Caribbean.
