What
is Aero DesignŽ?
The Aero DesignŽ
competition is intended to provide undergraduate and graduate engineering
students with a real-life engineering exercise. The competition has been
designed to provide exposure to the kinds of situations that engineers face in
the real work environment. First and foremost a design competition, students
will find themselves performing trade-off studies and making compromises to
arrive at a design solution that will optimally meet the mission requirements
while still conforming to the configuration limitations.
The importance of
interpersonal communication skills is sometimes overlooked, yet both written
and oral communication skills are vital in the engineering workplace. To help
teams develop these skills, a high percentage of a team's score is devoted to
the design report and the oral presentation required in the competition.
