At Northeastern SEDS, we participate in multiple competitions whilst fostering a sense of community through space-related events and activities. Our teams also participate in outreach events with our local communities and alongside other engineering organizations on campus. We have biweekly general meetings where you can meet up with us to learn more about our projects and to hang and talk about space stuff. Read through our projects to see what’s happening!
