nation’s future workforce” and to “Attract and retain students in STEM Disciplines”. TheNASA Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD) goals include taking “responsibilityfor the intellectual stewardship of the core competencies of aeronautics” which certainly includestheir retention by the workforce. The importance of STEM (Science-Technology-Engineering-Mathematics) workforce is paramount to other organizations as well, including the NAE, theAIAA and the AIA.1 There are a number of possible approaches to addressing this challenge. No single one willsolve the problem – it is a systems problem, and the nation needs a systems approach, rangingfrom improving the STEM skills in K-12, to retaining workforce in the aeronautics industry.However
