The Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering Department at Clarkson University has announced to students the start of a process to transition to an aerospace program.

This shift follows Prof. Buckingham’s offering of AE 460 Introduction to Spacecraft Engineering, as well as the recent hire of new faculty member Prof. Michael C.F. Bazzocchi.

“I am excited to have him come on board” - Prof. Brian Helebrook
