Abstract Submission Period is Now Closed | Registration opening October 2024.
AIAA is pleased to announce that the Region VII/International Student Conference will be held from 25–26 November 2024 at Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Australia & Online. This conference is intended for AIAA Region VII Students from around the world, with the exceptions of Canada and Mexico, which have been incorporated into AIAA’s North America Regions. The conference will also be hybrid with an online component to accommodate students who are not able to travel to Australia to present their paper in-person.
The AIAA Region VII Student Conference is a technical and oral paper competition for high schoolers (grades 9-12), undergraduate and graduate students of all majors! Connect with professionals in the Aerospace industry and also meet other like-minded students who share similar interests, and receive feedback on your work! Students may submit any paper that covers the technical disciplines of AIAA, and will have the chance to compete for cash prizes in a fun-filled two-day event. First-place winners will be offered a chance to compete in the 2025 International Student Conference, taking place in conjunction with the 2025 AIAA SciTech Forum, with flight, lodging, and most expenses paid.
*This competition is subject to all applicable laws, including US export laws. US law prevents AIAA from accepting registration fees, awarding prize money to, providing feedback on or publishing entries from, persons residing in Iran, Cuba, North Korea, Crimea, Sudan, or Syria. Additionally with respect to the conflict in Ukraine, AIAA will continue our practice not allowing Russian- or Belarusian-based students to participate in the AIAA Region VII Student Conference.
Registration opening October 2024.
Virtual Attendance: $7 USD
In-person Attendance: $13 USD
