The Aerospace Industry: Course Description
From the Cold War Space Race to the turbulent economic fortunes of commercial jet manufacturers, the aerospace industry has a complicated history. The free Aerospace Engineering course gives students a perspective on how aeronautics and astronautics history and current events came to shape the aerospace industry as it is today. Students studied previous challenges and the future of businesses and governments that employ aerospace engineers. The original course was a mixture of guest lecturers from prominent aerospace companies, class discussion and lectures. Professor Earll Murman, Jennifer Lynn Craig and Barbara Lechner taught the mixed format seminar course. This course hoped to prepare students in Aerospace Engineering to work in the industry. It was designed for students in an undergraduate Aeronautics or Astronautics degree program.
This free OpenCourseWare provides selected lecture notes, a class reading list, selected journal entries from students and an academic paper by the instructors about their teaching methods for this course.
