course, wherestudents follow prescribed procedure to run the equipment, test specimens, obtain results,analyze data and write a report in which they discuss and interpret the data and drawconclusions. However the first element of “designing an experiment” is rather difficult toaddress in an undergraduate course. The difficulty is due to many reasons including lack of timeto cover essential laboratory tests in the curriculum, lack of preparation of undergraduatestudents to design and perform their own experimental work, and the extra training needed tooperate expensive equipment.Some educators argue that it is better to have students run fewer but more open-endedexperiments than many well-prescribed and guided experiments [1].

The process of overcomingthese constraints can only be done with faculty development and curriculum revisions.

Not much should be read into these results, but the Fascinated type should serve theteams well in a research project. The lack of Problem Solvers could explain some of thedifficulties teams have with design and manufacturing of test articles and may be indicative ofthe aerospace engineering curriculum being more focused on the science of engineering than itsapplication
