logic elements.While many engineering programs have already implemented PLC courses in their curricula,instruction remains lacking in many others. Since engineering students with some PLC trainingmay have better career opportunities than those who do not, this may represent an area forimprovement for some programs.Introduction to Projects and Tools is a freshman level course offered to electrical engineeringstudents at [XXX University]. This one-credit laboratory course serves to provide students withhands-on experience with a variety of projects such as the implementation of 555 timers, basiclogic circuits, and measurements of electrical quantities.A two-week PLC module was developed and implemented in the Introduction to Projects andTools

Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) in 2012. American c Society for Engineering Education, 2020 The Implementation of Virtual Labs in Aerospace Structures EducationAbstractVirtual laboratories are valuable resources to support students’ learning in engineering andscience. They allow students to perform experiments with minimum resources, be prepared forother hands-on activities or lectures, and better understand the conceptual knowledge of thediscipline. Due to those benefits, the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics at PurdueUniversity has been implementing virtual labs in the lab course of AAE 20401

principles for UAVs. In section3, fundamentals of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles analysis/design education will be discussed. There are a lotof valuable lessons learned from industry on the design mis-calculations and mistakes made on the legacyvehicles flying today. In section 4, a number of important lessons learned - in teaching UAVsanalysis/design - are presented. In section 5, three new UAS related courses which were developed by theauthor are briefly introduced. Section 6 is dedicated to the UAV laboratory and lab experiments to teachthe implementation of the UAV related theories. The new lab equipment, hardware, and software arerecently purchased from Quanser; and the UAV lab was opened past January.2. Analysis/Design Principles for UAVsThe

integrate modern educational technology tools and inquiry-basedhands-on learning activities to reinforce science and mathematical concepts required to enterSTEM careers, especially high-demand and emerging field of drone technology.Students learned about potential college and career opportunities and why a background inadvanced science and mathematics is crucial to achieving these careers. However, a balancemust be met for providing a rigorous informal academic environment for the students whileallowing them to enjoy the program’s activities so that they will remember the experiencepositively and perhaps consider STEM-related degrees and careers. We met this challenge bysupplementing classroom instruction with exposure to laboratory and field-based

astrong electric field to create thrust. The HET is used for many modern space applications, fromstation-keeping on small satellites to long-term travel to faraway asteroids.Electric propulsion, and specifically the HET, integrates many concepts that are fundamental in anundergraduate education such as electricity and magnetism (E&M), material properties, thermalanalysis, and laboratory experimentation. However, the HET is rarely studied below the graduatelevel. As such, we present a path of feasibility for an undergraduate electric propulsion projectbuilding a small, low-power HET, both as a novel vehicle for engaging with introductory physicsconcepts and as a case study of an advanced self-directed project at the undergraduate level.In this

on by the engineering students inthe spring 2019 section of ME 450 Aircraft Design. The new motors were researched, procured,and installed on the Stewart platform during the spring of 2019. However, testing of the largermotors by these students was severely limited due to the moving of the new School ofEngineering to new facilities (including all new laboratories) during the summer of 2019. Besides the changing of student team members from the original group, this movebrought additional challenges to the project since the simulator and all the associated equipmenthad to be disassembled and boxed up for the relocation to the new lab space. But the move hasrecently been completed, and now a new multidisciplinary team of five

the educational value of this project. Not only does it provide an opportunity forinterdisciplinary engineering, it also forces each student to incorporate their piece of the projectinto the larger design and not just look at a single system in an educational vacuum. Learning towork as a part of a larger team in a long term project such as this is invaluable for an engineer’scareer as projects and designs in industry and laboratories are often multiple year collaborationsthat a single semester long class cannot adequately replicate.Aerospace Opportunities in Small Schools (Senior Author Perspective)Small universities and colleges are often limited in their ability to offer meaningful opportunitiesin systems engineering or multidisciplinary
