Our focus areas

Transition & Career Readiness
Turning experience into opportunity.

Every year, thousands of service members transition to civilian careers – and RTX is here to help make that journey successful.

We help veterans and service members translate their technical skills, leadership experience, and mission-first mindset into meaningful careers in aerospace, defense, and technology.

Higher Education
Opening doors through education and mentorship.

Education opens doors – to new opportunities, innovation, and impact. That’s why we invest in programs that empower veterans and military-connected students to pursue their academic and career goals.

Mental Health, Wellness & Family Support
Supporting emotional resilience and family strength.

Service doesn’t end when deployment does – and neither should our support. RTX is committed to promoting the mental health and well-being of service members, veterans, and their families.

We partner with organizations that provide critical resources for emotional resilience, family connection, and long-term well-being.

Service doesn’t end with retirement from active duty – and neither does our commitment.

By investing in veterans and their families, RTX ensures that the leadership, discipline, and innovation developed through service continue to shape our workforce and the future of aerospace and defense.
