Welcome
Welcome to the 2008 Region I-MA Student Conference Web Site! This year's conference was held at the University of Maryland College
Park on April 11-12, 2008. Next year's conference will be held at Old
Dominion University in Norfolk, VA.
The conference is over. Thanks to all who came and especially to the presenters, all of whom gave excellent presentations, leaving the judges with very difficult decisions in all categories. Thanks also to everyone from the University of Maryland who pitched in to make the conference a memorable experience for all.
We would like to take yet another opportunity to thank our sponsors, without whom the conference would not have been possible. If you submitted your resume, they have a copy, and they have requested copies of all of the papers for further review.
Congratulations to the winners!

The AIAA Student Conference is a technical paper competition for AIAA student members at the undergraduate and graduate levels from regional campuses. Students are invited to submit technical papers and give formal presentations, which are judged for technical content and clarity of communication. Winners are awarded cash prizes and may advance to the AIAA Foundation International Student Conference, typically held the following January at the AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting & Exhibition Center in Reno, NV.
In addition to the competition, the conference provides a venue for students to interactively share AIAA experiences, participate in social activities, and exchange ideas about current topics in aerospace engineering.
Please note: All funds raised will be administered by the Univsersity System of
Maryland Foundation, Inc. for the benefit of the AIAA Student Chapter
in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of
Maryland's College Park campus. Please make all checks payable to the University System of Maryland Foundation, Inc.
