Educating the Aerospace Engineer of 2016 Narayanan Komerath, Mark D. Maughmer Georgia Institute of Technology / The Pennsylvania State UniversityAbstractThe U.S. aerospace industry is changing rapidly, from vertically integrated development andmanufacturing to “large system integration” as their main business. Driven by globalcompetition, the new capabilities also enable the realization of some grand dreams of humanity.This paper lays out two scenarios and argues that leadership will reach or exceed the optimisticscenario. This scenario is used to gauge implications for engineering education. The needs fordepth and breadth must be balanced. Skills in developing business cases

Key to solving this shortcoming is finding the right balance whenteaching students the three primary elements of design proficiency: (a) engineering sciences, (b)Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) methods, and (c) the actual design process.
