Núcleo de Alunos de Engenharia e Arquitectura Naval do Instituto Superior Técnico
Naval Engineering Students Association - IST, Portugal

NAEN is a student's and youth association created by a group of Naval Engineering students from IST that felt there was a lack of an organization to create a bridge between the student and the professional environment, to organize extra-curricular activities for Naval Engineering students and anyone interested in the area, to share information about this area of studies in Portugal and abroad and also to act as a intermediary for communication between Maritime and Naval Engineering students all around the world.
