The National Academy ofEngineering [1] as well as various engineering professional societies highlight the importance ofleadership skills in engineering [2-6]. This trend is reinforced by the newly approved ABETCriteria for the 2019-20 review cycle that includes “the ability to function effectively on a teamwhose members together provide leadership … establish goals, plans tasks, and meet objectives”[7]. With these ABET changes come questions about how to assess leadership. Because theconversation among educators on developing leadership in engineering students is growing, thisresearch seeks to

It is planned to utilize the custom VRflight simulator to assist in motivating students during their aircraft design projects, and provideadditional insight into the aircraft design process. After students get an idea of the size of theiroriginal aircraft, by estimating the power loading, wing loading, drag, lift-to-drag ratio and fuelfraction, the take-off weight can be approximated. This is followed by engine sizing andselection, wing geometry and placement, airfoil selection and tail geometry and sizing. Beforetoo long, the student will be able to “rough out” their original aircraft in X-Plane by specifyingall the necessary design parameters. This will give students the opportunity to take their

Studentswere challenged to wrestle with what it means for something to be pro-social.
