Furthermore, the applications courses “close the loop” by reemphasizingsystem level concepts and exploiting the deep analytic tools developed earlier. The program culminates in athesis that addresses an immediate aerospace communication problem.

Practical projects provide the students with the understanding that their work isaddressing a relevant industry need. Additionally, design projects such as this one introducesstudents to the type of group dynamics that they are likely to encounter at their future sites ofemployment where they will be expected to perform
