Auburn University and NASA are hosting a half day educational and networking session on quality assurance for payloads developed by academia for space. This event is part of the Academy of Aerospace Quality (AAQ) project at Auburn University (Alice Smith and Jeff Smith, PIs) sponsored by NASA.

The program includes speakers from NASA and NASA sponsored universities and industries. There may be an optional behind the scenes technical tour of Kennedy Space Center and AAQ attendees can also attend additional QLF sessions.
The target audience includes engineering academics who are interested in learning more about working with NASA especially in the area of payload experiment development. Students are welcome to attend with a participating faculty member.
