Every year, AMTA hosts Student Day activities on Tuesday of the conference week.
On Student Day, local college students come to the conference to tour the exhibitors, see special student demonstrations, and listen to papers in the afternoon. In the evening, they have dinner and attend a special student presentation on antenna measurements. They can bring resumes to give to interested vendors and recruiters.
Kenny Kirchoff from Boeing is this year's Student Day coordinator.
