The premier event for students interested in space

The UKSEDS National Student Space Conference, now in its 31st year, is the premier event for students interested in space, uniting them with academics and professionals from across the country to network, share knowledge, and discuss the challenges facing the sector.

It is open to all, and features talks by leading space science and industry figures, a careers fair, and opportunities to take part in discussions and networking events.

The conference also hosts this year's Airbus Student Presentation Competition. Applications for the competition close 8th February 2019.

The event is organised by UKSEDS, the UK's national student space society, and is this year hosted by the Physics and Astronomy Society at the University of Edinburgh.
