SUMMARY OF EMPLOYER COMMENTS ON CURRICULUM

FALL QUARTER, 1998

 

 

Aerospace Engineering

 

Students need to be given real engineering problems.

 

More emphasis in AE on experimental aerodynamics and advanced concept development.

 

There is a lack of understanding of systems (how spacecraft subsystems interact--orbital

dynamics, launch vehicle selection, space policy or technology readiness)

 

More emphasis on communication and presentation skills.

 

Add a basic noise course to the requirements for ME, AE, CE, EE programs.
