This is a project to plan for long-term U.S.-Russian collaborative research in the area of nano- and microsatellite design. The principal investigators are Ramesh Agarwal from Washington University and Valentin Zelentsov from Bauman Moscow State Technical University (MSTU).The PI's current efforts are focused on modernizing the engineering curriculum taught at Washington University - a need emphasized by aerospace industry advisors. The current curriculum focuses on the standard ABET-required courses: aerodynamics, aerospace structures, propulsion, flight mechanics and control, orbital mechanics and aerospace design. Industry advisors have noted, in particular, the need to include the physics, theory and design of micro air vehicles and nanosatellites into the standard courses and to provide hands-on experience along two tracks: aircraft design and spacecraft design.MSTU has a well-established and outstanding nano- and micro-satellite design, build and fly program. It offers a distinctive approach to engineering education by combining academic studies with research, design, and experimental work, and it has been a leader in research, design, and building of satellites in Russia. Working with MSTU will provide an excellent educational opportunity for U.S. engineering students. This project in aerospace engineering research fulfills the program objectives of bringing together leading experts in the U.S. and Central/Eastern Europe to combine complementary efforts and capabilities in areas of strong mutual interest and competence on the basis of equality, reciprocity, and mutuality of benefit.

这是一个计划在纳米和微卫星设计领域进行长期美国俄罗斯合作研究的项目。 首席研究人员是华盛顿大学的Ramesh Agarwal和莫斯科州立技术大学（MSTU）的Valentin Zelentsov。PI目前的努力旨在现代化华盛顿大学教授的工程课程 - 由航空业行业顾问强调的需求。 目前的课程侧重于标准的Abet要求课程：空气动力学，航空航天结构，推进，飞行力学和控制，轨道力学和航空航天设计。 行业顾问特别指出，需要在标准课程中包括微型航空车辆和纳米卫星的物理，理论和设计，并沿两条曲目提供动手体验：飞机设计和航天器设计。 它通过将学术研究与研究，设计和实验工作相结合，为工程教育提供了独特的方法，并且一直是俄罗斯卫星研究，设计和建造的领导者。 与MSTU合作将为美国工程专业的学生提供极好的教育机会。航空航天工程研究中的这项项目实现了将美国和中欧的领先专家汇集在一起​​的计划目标，以将互补的努力和能力结合在一起，以强烈的共同利益和能力，基于平等，互惠和福利的共同性。
