For those of us early in our career in the Aerospace industry it is hard to see how the choices that we’re making could influence our careers in the long-term. This discussion will focus on helping us better understand how we can be setting ourselves up for a successful career in Aerospace, and how we can navigate the opportunities and challenges along the way. Boxed lunches available for the first 120 attendees on a first-come-first-served basis. Line up early so you can get a lunch!
AIAA’s journals are the best resource for staying current on the latest aerospace research and development. Reporting on the most important aerospace advances, AIAA‘s eight active technical journals feature original research papers spanning the spectrum of aerospace science and technology.
Learn about the peer review process for AIAA journals from Editors-in-Chief and Associate Editors of several AIAA journals. Help evaluate the technical content, importance to the field, style and clarity, and completeness of manuscripts. RSVP required.

Lecture Title: Offshore Wind Development – Today and Tomorrow
The offshore wind industry began in 1991 in Denmark, with eleven 35-m rotor turbines (rated for 450 kW of power output) at the Vindeby Wind Farm. Today, the world’s largest offshore wind farm is being built in the UK, with 174 Siemens Gamesa 154-m rotor turbines (7 MW), with a total output of 1,218 MW—enough energy for 1 million homes. Even larger projects are planned, utilizing the industry’s biggest machine: the MHI Vestas 10 MW, 174-m rotor turbine. In the U.S. market, the latest projects off the East Coast are planning for even bigger machines utilizing the GE 12 MW, 220-m rotor turbine. So, as the industry continues to accelerate and larger machines with ever-increasing rotor sizes are developed, what will be the engineering challenges? What are the issues we will be revisiting?
Please join us for this exciting talk organized by the Wind Energy Technical Committee, which will discuss three decades of progress in the offshore wind industry. An informal networking hour will follow.
Each year, the Institute recognizes exemplary professionals for their accomplishments in engineering or scientific work, outstanding merit and contributions to the art, science, or technology of aeronautics or astronautics. Join us to congratulate the Class of 2022 Associate Fellows at this annual celebration event.
Admission to the reception, dinner, and induction ceremony is available on a first-come, first-served basis and can be purchased for $110 via the AIAA SciTech Forum registration webpage, or onsite (based on availability). Proof of purchase for the event is required. Dress is business attire or semi-formal.
