provided theoretically predicted trends.Smooth curves could be fitted to the data. This approach to a flight test course proved to be quiteeffective. The reports were similar to those submitted when the same tests were performed inflight. While not quite as satisfying to students as when they got to fly all the experiments, theyseemed happy to be able to learn real flight testing techniques. A number of graduates were ableto secure flight test engineering positions in both industry and government activities.I. BackgroundIn 1963, the Aeronautical (now Aerospace) Engineering Department at Penn State Universityobtained a Piper PA-28-160 Cherokee from Piper Aircraft on a lease agreement for $1.00 a year.The next year, a flight test engineering course

Its immediate goal was to enableUTEP students studying Control systems (an interdisciplinary field) to conduct experiments on awind tunnel system (see Figure 1) located in a UTEP laboratory while off-campus via theInternet and only a Web browser. The wind tunnel is not only an important research and designtool for studying the aerodynamic properties of various automotive and aerospace structures, italso provides an excellent platform for education in aerodynamics and control.

The surface finish data is obtainedusing a newly designed laser based technique; where as geometrical data is obtained using aspecially designed optical digitizer. These measurement techniques will be implemented in theform of embedded systems. The paper concludes by giving examples of how these instrumentsare adopted for an on-line monitoring process in an aerospace industry.1 Embedded MicrocontrollersAn embedded microcontroller is a small but complete computer system implemented on a singlesilicon chip.

We find that though some of the content such as material conservation,work/energy concepts, chemical reactions, ideal gases, etc. are covered in these courses, studentsview the treatments in markedly different ways. Unlike the other courses, most students findengineering thermodynamics very difficult and confusing. We suggest there are several reasonsfor this. 1. The basic thermodynamics principles are set down in a few general laws first. Fromthese, the student is expected to master the technique of going from the general to the particular,that is, to understand the general laws well enough to decide which terms do or do not apply tospecific problems and to use his or her own
