Here Systems Engineering students get a state for how system-level design decisions are made in industry, the hear from experts in many disciplines, and tour the extensive test facilities. In addition to learning about the theory behind unmanned vehicles, one of the goals of ES456 is to give students an appreciation for the state of the unmanned system's industry. Thanks to Northrop Grumman for graciously hosting us every year!
