Tracking back from this likely UAS deployment scenario, the requirements for undergraduateaerospace engineers to embark on successful careers in the industry is likely going to be the abilityto move beyond classroom knowledge of flight concepts to being able to Conceive – Design –Implement - Operate (CDIO) such platforms within any mission parameters. The CDIO approach was conceived to fill the gap in “real-world engineering” skills ofundergraduate students (CDIO initiative), with a vision to focus on the fundamental concepts inengineering.

Connected knowledge applied to multiplediscipline related activities provides better frameworks for students to learn and developconceptual understandings [4].

Students will encounter many different problems in their career, but a few design courses incollege ​certainly​ cannot expose students to every scenario, much less ​effectively teach​ them howto solve each problem. Further, the purpose of our design courses should not be to simply “teachthe code” (Hines 2012). This is sure to reinforce the impression that design is cranking throughequations and picking sizes from tables - a practice that can limit creativity. “The creative structural engineer must be able to anticipate how a structure responds to applied loads and other external influences
