Because of their cheaper cost, UASs can also be used as the entrypoint for many advanced concepts in aerospace engineering.

specific learning topics are driven by a large project.Many currently implemented first-year programs have highly structured projects [2],[7]. Whileengaging, these do not truly serve the need for science and engineering students to applycreativity and exercise the design process as described by Dym ​et al. ​[4]. Newer technologies,including 3D printing and microcontrollers, offer the possibility of creative, unique teamprojects; however, project-based courses using these technologies are frequently targeted athonors and senior level students [3,8,9]. Interdisciplinary team-oriented projects enhanceengagement and retention [10], and are, at least, equally effective at engaging both male andfemale populations of students [5]. This paper describes a
