New Navigator Seminar 2013
Looking for Navigators, Engineers, Scientists and Surveyors
If you are a PhD, MSc, or final-year undergraduate student and are interested in positioning/navigation technology or looking at the possibility of a career within this industry, then the annual Royal Institute of Navigation’s New Navigator Seminar, is not to be missed.
This one day seminar, now in its eighth year, is a special event for researchers to present their
positioning/navigation research to a wide audience and to gain an awareness of other developments
in the domain.
Benefits of attending include the opportunity to:
- Gain experience speaking at a conference, in an informal and friendly environment
- Meet key industry and government representatives
- Learn about the latest innovations in navigation and positioning technology
- Network with people from other universities
- Discuss potential career opportunities
The European Satellite Navigation Competition (ESNC) 2013 University Challenge will be also be on show. Any young researcher or students with ideas / innovations in the field of navigation are encouraged to discuss these ideas. For more information please visit ukesnc.com.
