Aerospace Engineering Pipeline Constricted Aerospace industry faces shortage of engineers Feb 2004: 50-year low in aerospace employment Now increasing, but talent pipeline is not sufficient Aerospace science and engineering positions 9% of funded positions going unfilled 27% eligible for retirement by 2008 Lack of qualified candidates Collaboration again required to solve the problem Government, industry and universities must work together Aerospace Industry Association 22 Dec 2004

Aerospace Economy in Southern California Manufacturing employment in So. Calif. ~ 1,000,000 Aerospace employment in So. Calif. ~ 200,000 Business areas with highest 2004 growth rates in Southern California Aerospace International Trade Tourism 16 14 12 10 USG Prime Contracts ($B) Southern California 8 6 4 2 2001 2002 2003 2004 Year

Why Space Grant Do we care? YES! Supports pipeline for industry and NASA internships and career hires from 500+ universities NGST focus schools include Air Force Academy, Cal Poly-SLO, CalTech, Hawaii, Michigan, MIT, NMSU, Purdue, Stanford, USC, UCSD and others Areas include cubesats, small sats, rocketry and related student projects and activities Futures: James Webb Space Telescope, Vision for Space Exploration, Transformational Space, etc.

Conclusion Education collaboration required for success Global environment is rapidly changing U.S. government investment support is critical Industry:university:government collaboration required Engineering education and university research Focus on basic and emerging engineering needs University research is new technology’s forcing function Engineering education is the key component-Enables innovation which in turn drives U.S. economy Mark calendars: CSA-Transforming Space 2006, AIAA SPACE 2007, CalTech-NGC-JPL 50 Years in Space 2007
