Attitudessurvey.Research ProblemThis paper examines the following research questions: 1. What are the professional persistence characteristics of present day aerospace engineering students? 2. How does the aerospace engineering education experience influence student perception of aerospace engineering?MethodsData Set The dataset used for this investigation contained the results of the 2009 administration ofthe web-based Survey of Aerospace Student Attitudes9, a cross-institution study administered bythe Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to the population of aerospace engineeringstudents in aerospace, aeronautical, or astronautical engineering programs across the UnitedStates.

. He is viewed as a leader in pursuing new fluids dynamics research opportunities that are becoming available shortly in the commercial sub-orbital rocket industry. He is one of three researchers selected for early flights with Blue Origin with an NSF-funded payload, and he is also launching payloads with Armadillo Aerospace, Masten Space Systems, XCOR, and Exos. Professor Collicott began activities in innovative teaching in capillary fluid physics, in STEM K-12 outreach, and in placing the positive news of university engineering education and capillary fluids re- search in the national media in 1996. In 1996 he created, and still teaches, AAE418, Zero-Gravity Flight Experiments, at Purdue. The research activities
seen 120 potential applicants progressthrough the program. With 20 of the students participating in summer 2014 just entering theirjunior year in high school, only 100 of the total number of participants have currently been ableto apply. The remaining 20 participants will be eligible to apply for fall 2016 admission. Of the Page 26.1343.11100 potential applicants, 83 students have applied to Texas A&M. Figure 12 depicts thebreakdown of majors where students applied. As shown, over 90% of students applied toengineering. The category STEM – non-ENGR simply means a student applied to a major inscience, technology, engineering, or
