摘要
In the summer of 1984 the Northrop Grumman Corporation notified California State Polytechnic University, Pomona (Cal Poly, Pomona; CSPUP) that the CSPUP proposal for an on-site external Master's degree program had been accepted. This paper reviews the development of this program, admission requirements, course offerings, annual quality reviews (by both Northrop Grumman and Cal Poly, Pomona), fee assessments, matriculation summaries, evolutionary program changes and keys to the program's success. Since its inception in the fall of 1984, the program has evolved and matured in terms of curriculum development, student advising and degree requirements into a highly successful, streamlined and focused graduate aeronautical engineering external degree program. Possible changes in the program's future direction(s) are also discussed.
