Irish Aviation Students Association Aviation Symposium 2016 takes place on Friday at the Crowne Plaza Dublin Airport and anticipates 300 attendees including students from secondary and third level institutions and industry professionals.

IASA is a non-profit association, established last year by a group of third level students from various colleges across Ireland with the goal of nurturing closer relationships between students, academia and the industry.

In doing so, their vision is to discover and develop opportunities that will contribute to the continuous success of aviation in Ireland.
