3. Provide students with an opportunity to build/add to their professional community by interacting with peers and panelists who have common interests in fields, organizations, and roles.

Time: 5:30-8:00pm

Date: April 21st 2026

Venue: Draper, Cambridge MA

Address: One Hampshire Street, Room 1409, Cambridge

Important information: Registration closes 3 weeks in advance for foreign nationals and a week in advance for US citizens






Parking info: Garage address is 800 Technology Square and the entrance is directly across from the Draper building. It’s important to use the “Draper” garage entrance and NOT the “Technology Square” entrance. The address is the same and they are adjoining buildings, but separate garages with separate entrances. The gates will be open and it says “Draper” right above the entrance.

Costs for the event, including dinner will be covered by the New England Section and AIAA Region I. The dinner will be catered by Bertucci's
