The recitation’s effectiveness will be measured bycomparing the passing rate of Statics students who participated with those who did notparticipate in the recitation.

Similar to yesteryear’s informationrevolution which saw computers and cellphones move from a technical curiosity to a disruptivetechnology, and eventually to a mandate for participation in business and everyday life, there isnow a growing expectation for students to possess some level of exposure to or awareness ofUAS platforms, capabilities, and applications. Students understand this and they want on board.Courses ImplementedTo provide students with a foundational exposure to UAS/aerospace design principles whileoperating within the fiscal realities of a small developing program, UAF has instituted an initialmodest 2-course sequence.

of the “entrepreneurial mindset” helps to prepare them forcareers in the fast paced society in which we live.IntroductionIt has often been stated that there is a large gap between what universities are teaching and whatengineers are expected to know in industry. Engineering programs are criticized for focusingsolely on technical education while ignoring industry and business needs. In response, manyprograms have added dedicated courses in leadership or entrepreneurship into the curriculum.The problem with this approach is that, often, students do not find that it is connected to theirstudies in a meaningful way. Further, it is extremely difficult to add an extra course into anexisting program; therefore, this sort of class is usually offered
