A special thank you to representatives from the Honda Aircraft Company for their recruiting and information session visit! We were more than inspired by the technical presentation Dr. Fujino (Honda Aircraft CEO and Founder) gave to the School of Aerospace back in March and it’s wonderful learning more about the HondaJet’s success and future. Good luck to all current and prospective Georgia Tech graduates wishing to be a part of Honda Aircraft! @ Georgia Tech

Promoting AIAA on campus on the special occasion of Space Day! We had an incredible crowd of non-Aerospace students around us all day and were very interested in all technical tours, engineering talks, case studies and other initiatives! We even had a 11 year old from a robotics competition who passed by to tell us he dreamed of working at NASA and talked to us about Nuclear Propulsion. We told him that he can one day accomplish such dreams! A shoutout to Georgia Tech's SEDS Chapter for organizing the SpaceDay Event.
