). c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017 Summer Research Program to Motivate Undergraduates for Career in Unmanned Aerial SystemsAbstractThe use of unmanned aerial systems (UASs) has been increasing rapidly for widespreadapplications including for precision agriculture, search and rescue, infrastructure monitoring,and powerline inspection. Because of their cheaper cost, UASs can also be used as the entrypoint for many advanced concepts in aerospace engineering. However, academia and industryhave not seen proportionate increase in the number of students pursuing studies for advanceddegrees or entering the workforce in the area of UAS technologies. This paper talks about thesummer research program at Cal

Michigan,midway between Chicago and Detroit. WMU is a doctoral university with approximately 23,000students, including about 17,000 undergraduates and 3,400 graduate students on the maincampus [6]. Approximately 2,700 students are enrolled in WMU’s College of Engineering andApplied Sciences, which houses 14 undergraduate engineering, technology, and applied scienceprograms.In 2013, WMU’s undergraduate program in Aeronautical Engineering converted to AerospaceEngineering. New space-focused courses were introduced and two new faculty members werehired to specialize in space-related research. In 2015, a Master of Science program in AerospaceEngineering was added.The WALI team was founded in fall 2014. The team was originally proposed by two

) section. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017 Integrated Teaching Model in Graduate Aerospace Classes: A Trial With Compressible Flow Aerodynamics Sidaard Gunasekaran University of Dayton AbstractMost of the graduate aerospace classes are dominated by complex analysis and a plethora ofequations. As such, without proper context, it is very easy for a student to lose sight of thebig picture, which hinders them from critically thinking about the knowledge they gainedand its applicability in the real world. The recent surge of the modern pedagogical practicesat the
