What Fellow Attendees Are Saying

“I don’t believe there are many, if any, other events that can neatly bring together this much talent and industry at the cutting edge of the field.“

“I always valued AIAA conferences, especially as a scientist this is “the place to go and participate”; the community and support by AIAA to publish the work is just great! Also, I always meet new interesting persons and the speakers during the event are always motivated and you can “rub shoulders” with very influential persons, who are will to exchange thoughts and give you valuable tips. Also, the event is great for students to engage with industry, it has always been fun to participate.”

“It is the most prominent event in aviation worldwide, by all means. It is also the ideal event to build new connections and nurture the professional network and impact.”

“From my experience, getting in personal contact with peers is oftentimes more valuable than just presenting one’s research to an anonymous crowd. These discussions can be very inspiring and motivating. Research can be a quite lonely occupation when feedback is missing. Scientific conferences can provide the impression that someone actually cares. This has often been the case at AIAA AVIATION.”

“AVIATION was superbly organized, and many awesome people were attending to connect with.”

“I found this experience to be wonderful since I met so many amazing people and learned a lot about Aerospace Engineering. I would recommend this to anyone who is serious and passionate about breaking into the Aerospace industry.“
