General Information

The AIAA Chapter of Worcester Polytechnic Institute takes great pleasure in inviting you to join us for this year’s Region I-NE Student Conference on March 27 and 28, 2009 in Worcester Massachusetts.

Come and learn about the latest aerospace research by the brightest students from Northeast colleges and universities, as they compete for prizes and the chance to present at a national AIAA Conference.

March 27 & 28, 2009

The AIAA Student Conference is a technical paper competition for AIAA student members at both undergraduate and graduate (Master’s) levels. Students from regional schools are invited to submit papers and give formal presentations that are judged for technical content and communication skills. The AIAA has established three divisions for competition: Undergraduate, Master’s, and Team.  Awards of $500, $300 and $250 will be presented to the first, second and third place winners in each category, respectively.  In addition, one author of the winning paper in each category will have the chance to present their papers at the AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting and Exhibit in January, 2010.

Attendance to this year's conference is open to all regional undergraduate and graduate student members of AIAA, faculty members from universities with AIAA student chapters, professional members of AIAA, invited guests and judges. 

In addition to the competition, the conference provides a venue for students, faculty and industry professionals to interact and discuss current aerospace topics while participating in local networking activities
