In this track, thestudent concentrates on a specific spacecraft related subsystem and follows through with the Page 12.826.9design and building process. This process is closely related to the NASA Program & ProjectLife Cycle, which is explained in the NASA Systems Engineering Handbook3. The preliminarydesign course precedes this class, but has generally no hardware component. In the preliminarydesign class the students conceptualize a mission and perform

To aggravate the situation further, thepercentage of women graduates in engineering have steadily increased over the past decade(more than 3 %) but has remained effectively same for AE (at 14%) which is lower than thatof engineering. The trends give an important insight into how minorities are affected in AE.The initiatives by government and universities have increased the percentage of womengraduates in engineering but not in AE. The trends for AE fall behind those of engineering atevery measure discussed above.

particularly relevant in a professional major such as engineering, where manystudents enter industry after graduation. While these outcomes are distinct from outcomes tied toframeworks such as CDIO or ABET, much of the underlying intent is the same.3,4 A broadperspective on the curriculum can be gained by looking at the integrated set of outcomes thatwere collected. Students will take different paths (e.g., different technical electives), but in eachcase the subject-level outcomes will in aggregate fulfill higher-level program objectives.An interesting area of future work would be to augment this subject-based outcome mappingwith a higher-level aggregated mapping to ABET or CDIO outcomes.

As aresult, they have become a very important tool in engineering education for a variety ofdisciplines. While many physical laboratories or training aids have regulatory and administrativerequirements, the considerations related to UAS are multifaceted and include Federal AviationRegulations, airspace requirements, and privacy considerations. Furthermore, UAS pose aphysical hazard that must be taken into account to protect students, staff, faculty, and

recruiting, retaining and training engineering students. In thelast decade, programs such as the AFRL-sponsored University Nanosat Program,the CanSat program, and especially the CubeSat standard have dramaticallychanged spacecraft engineering education. In an incredibly short period of time(especially by aerospace standards), such activities have helped foster strongaerospace education programs in schools with no history of space activity. Infact, it can be shown that the 'success' of these programs was a direct result oftheir satellite-building activities. In this paper, we will discuss three related topics,(1) the status of the student-built space missions over last ten years, (2) thesignificance of these programs and their contributions to
