Pakistan, September 7, 2011

The Second International Conference on Aerospace Science &
Engineering (ICASE-2011) will be held in Islamabad from 07 -
09 September 2011. This is a biennial event which provides
an International platform to the scientists and engineers to
remain abreast with developments in aerospace, space
communication, design of space systems etc. The objective of
this conference is also to establish dialogues leading to
long lasting cooperation among the scientists and engineers
of the world.
