Mission: Aerospace Engineering
The mission of the Aerospace Engineering program is to provide the highest quality engineering education through cooperative efforts with aerospace industry; and to cultivate new ideas for design, analysis, and implementation of the principles and practices particular to aerospace engineering.
Program Educational Objectives
- Graduates will meet the expectations of employers of aerospace engineers.
- Graduates will embrace leadership or collaborative roles in their communities and/or professions.
- Qualified graduates will pursue advanced study, if they so desire.
Student Outcomes
- An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
- An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental and economic factors.
- An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
- An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
- An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
- An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
- An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
- An ability to use technique, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.
