64th Engine Systems Symposium
Convening the symposium
As Chair, I led the organisation coordinating 5 directors and 47 international students for the technical programme, and secured an external collaboration with EUROAVIA.
Micro gas-turbines for aviation
Authored “Micro Gas-Turbine Engines for Aviation Propulsion: A Review of Technologies, Challenges, and Future Directions”, surveying the state of the art for compact propulsion systems.
EUROAVIA Collaboration
The symposium hosted the President of EUROAVIA, Mr Pedro Moreira, and the Secretary of EUROAVIA, Mr Luigi Amirabile.
They presented after the conference address, highlighting the necessity of academy and industry collaboration in aerospace.
A delivered symposium
The 64th edition ran to schedule with 47 students, 5 faculty directors, and a review paper delivered to the committee.
A Dedicated Conference Website
For the online companion of our Conference, I created a website as a hub of information and registration for our attendees. I built and hosted the site.

My favourite part of the opening address:
“We meet here today to celebrate together our science and engineering discipline that propels and powers our world. This year, the students of the Thermal Power and Propulsion September 2025 cohort are keeping the fire of the historical Engine Systems Symposium burning by conducting their own research on their selected topics for the 64th Edition of this event. This year’s conference is notably diverse, with close to 50 students from all around the world presenting topics from stationary to aero propulsion and power engines and many other auxiliary systems.
