shorteningthe length to cover only the two days of the competition. In the case of USMA, the trip is fullysponsored by our international office at no cost to the students or academic department.In 2011, one very interesting collaborative opportunity our students came across was with theIntelligent Control Laboratory at Peking University. Several Chinese graduate students had beenworking on building and controlling robotic fish. Our students were very excited about theproject and had a great deal of discussions with the Chinese students about the mechanics,controls, communications, and image processing involved in the project. We learned that theunderwater robot platform developed at Peking University has been used for robotic fishcompetitions annually

take.” “I will know how to build circuits and control systems for Mechanical Engineering Design courses.” “This class relates to ME [control course] and future design courses. I should now be more qualified to analyze and build working systems.” “Sensors such a strain gauges relate perfectly to coursework in aerospace structures. Other sensors and signal conversion relate to the field of dynamics and controls of aerospace systems.” “As an aerospace engineer, application for EE could either be very high or very low depending on what kind of job I get. I could be doing a lot of wiring, soldering, programming, etc., or I might be working in wind tunnels where application may not be
