L'Aveyron /avɛ'ʀɔ̃/ (Avairon in occitano) è un dipartimento francese della regione Occitania. Confina con i dipartimenti del Cantal a nord, della Lozère a est, del Gard a sud-est, dell'Hérault a sud, del Tarn a sud-ovest, del Tarn e Garonna a ovest del Lot a nord-ovest. Corrisponde quasi esattamente alla regione del Rouergue che faceva parte dell'antica provincia della Guienna. Il dipartimento è formato da 46 cantoni suddivisi in 3 arrondissement, che hanno come capoluogo Rodez (capitale anche del dipartimento), Millau e Villefranche-de-Rouergue. Le principali città, oltre al capoluogo Rodez, sono Millau, Villefranche-de-Rouergue, Decazeville e Saint-Affrique. Sui 304 comuni, solo 4 hanno più di 10.000 abitanti (i tre capoluoghi degli arrondissement e Onet-le-Château).
