joint three-way collaboration between researchers from the US university, the German Research organization, and scientists at a USNational Laboratory, but has since expanded to encompass other research institutions based on the project demands of thestudent researchers, including additional National Laboratories. The collaboration from this program exposes both undergraduateand graduate students to the technical, global, and professional environment ideal for fostering the skills necessary in the nextgeneration of competent global engineers while also providing the conditions towards advancing research in their given research International Research Collaboration

are covered. Introduces center of gravity theory, defines how to locate centers of gravity, and introduces weight and balance procedures for engineering technology, not covered by flight ground school [14].” In this course, students are introduced to electric propulsion nomenclature, applicable aircraft configurations, and applicable standards and federal laws for aircraft design. b) In AT 26200 Basic Aircraft Powerplant Technology, this course is “A study of the design, construction, and operating practices of aircraft reciprocating and small gas turbine engines. Laboratory exercises emphasize airworthiness evaluation, fault-isolation techniques, and standard service/maintenance practices [14
