The aerospace engineering sciences department at the University of baby直播app at Boulder has been ranked as the most improved university aerospace department in the nation over the past decade, according to an external advisory board report.
The report was prepared in 1998 by 20 national industry, government and academic advisers, including James McAnally, former CEO of Lockheed-Martin Astronautics in Denver, Richard Cook, program manager at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, George Gleghorn, vice president of TRW Space and Technology Group in Cleveland and John Junkins, an aerospace engineering professor at Texas A&M University.
The advisory group also included Don Vanlandingham, president and CEO of Ball Aerospace Technologies Group, Noel Hinners, vice president of Martin Lockheed Astronautics, former CU astronaut Vance Brand, now deputy director of aerospace projects at Dryden Flight Research Center in Edwards, Calif., and Joe Smead, retired CEO of Kaiser Space and Electronics in San Jose, Calif.
Chaired by Richard Seebass, former dean of CU-Boulder's College of Engineering and Applied Science, the aerospace department has become a national leader in undergraduate curriculum reform, according to the advisory board report. The curriculum has been integrated into CU-Boulder's new $11 million Integrated Teaching and Learning Laboratory, which provides hundreds of undergraduates with hands-on experience in various engineering disciplines, including aerospace engineering, each day.
