The juniors are also involved in more design work than in the past. In particular, several years ago we talked to seniors about how they would like to be prepared to take the senior capstone course. They felt that they needed more experience with design before plunging into the design course. Our response to this was to introduce discipline-specific "mini-design" projects into the junior courses. The structures faculty have been particularly active in this area, and the students all do some actual wing design in these classes now. Every year we are refining our approach to these design projects.
