Along these lines, we are charged with the preparation of students in the aerospace engineering fields for future leadership in industry, academia, and government.
• Our objective is to conduct state-of-the-art basic and collaborative research towards advancing science and technology in aerospace engineering. Research is the lifeblood of any influential university.
• We provide service to professional societies, local community, and to the state. With partnerships come great results and we keep this in the forefront of our activities as we partner with industry to address the needs of professional societies.
• Finally we profess our support of the college of engineering and the university in the fulfillment of their missions.
Our vision for fulfilling our mission is composed of the following:
• Attract, develop, and retain the best faculty and staff. Employing top people in our faculty and staff positions allow us to provide the educational experiences expected of our department. Faculty are the foundation of a strong department.
• Recruit and educate the best undergraduate and graduate students. A department without students is an empty house. Students perform research which advances the department and it is the achievements
UPES: Evaluative Report of CoES Page 16 of 208
