For example, Black and Hispanic American studentscollectively earn only 10.6%, 8.4%, and 6.4% of the BS, MS, and Ph.D.’s in aerospaceengineering, respectively. They are among the lowest percentages of all major engineeringdisciplines, leading to underutilization of the talent pool in the aerospace industry. 1 To tackle thisconcern, a multi-institution coalition sponsored by NASA is established to engageunderrepresented minorities in coordinated educational and professional development activities,including senior design projects, undergraduate research experiences
