achieved during the GAM. The incoming and outgoing hyperbolic asymptotes aredisplayed radiating from the planet and reinforce the ease of interpretation by the student. Figure 1: Gravity Assist Maneuver Example2Figure 1, above, shows a sample GAM plot using planet centered coordinates. In the program, allgravity assists are assumed to be powered, and if an unpowered gravity assist is better, theoptimization reduces the ΔV magnitude to a negligible value.2 In the figure, the incoming andoutgoing hyperbolic trajectories are shown in black and blue, respectively, with a red poweredΔV direction vector. In this example case, the ΔV direction vector is displayed, but its magnitudeis negligibly small (< 1 m/s). Further

administrators in questionbothered to read these comments, had them read to them, understood or cared if they did either.Table 3: Comments from Interested StudentsCommentOne of the purposes of the course was to be able to design a military defense system. Thisproject was due on one of the last days of the semester and in order to do it we had to apply allthe knowledge learnt during the course. It is not true that we had no textbook. It was not veryused during the classes. But (the prof) gave us the syllabus the first day of class, and there wereall the topics of the course were related with the corresponding chapters of the book.He is not afraid to give the grades that one deserves. He has given me 40’s and has given me120’s, and every time I deserved

(greencircles) and 5 graduate student mentors (turquoise circles) are shown for demonstration. Eachproject has a graduate student mentor with only the most experienced students supervising morethan one project. The graduate students meet with their undergraduate team(s) a couple of timesa week (ideally) and are available for consultation at other times. These graduate students arevolunteers who are involved in some aspect of project engineering in their own research. Theyare chosen largely on their understanding that, to receive the benefit of undergraduates workingon their project, they will be required to invest much more time at the beginning than simplyundertaking the specific tasks themselves. Such mentoring abilities require considerablecoaching
