American Society for Engineering Education, 2016 Preparing Aerospace Engineering Students for Career in UAV TechnologiesAbstractUnmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have potential of reducing human casualty and cost formany dull, dirty, and dangerous missions. UAVs are one of the fastest growing sectors ofAerospace Industry. However, there is a lack of professionals entering the workforce. There isalso a lack of students pursuing studies for graduate degrees in the UAV related areas. Thispaper talks about innovative projects and teaching practices designed to increase students’interest and involvement in UAV related projects. Many aspects of UAV technologies are not orcannot usually be taught in classroom

As a final note we suggest that all industries in engineering andtechnology would benefit greatly from this cross-discipline approach to evaluating cyber-securityearly within the educational process.IntroductionAs we advance in the information age we are increasingly aware of the threat that cyber-terrorists pose to United States government and military networks around the world. In the past,information technology did little more for the government than to aid government offices inadministrative tasks, but has now become a critical part of military operations globally. The U.S.military cyberspace infrastructure is made up of tens of thousands of networks and

As thebarriers to entry fall, space missions become a viable option for more students and researchgroups. Many of these missions require accurate spacecraft pointing and attitude control.Consequently, exposing students to the practical elements of spacecraft attitude sensing andcontrol is more important than ever. To help address this challenge a novel low-cost test-bed forattitude control has

Another challenge was exploring the impact of a pureinquiry-based teaching program. One key milestone reached was creating a participatoryenvironment for the program evaluation. The result was an evaluation regime that was useful tothe rocket program stakeholders.
