Empowering Engineering Students to Learn How To Learn

Farrokh Mistree holds the L.A. Comp chair and is the director of the School of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Oklahoma in Norman, Oklahoma. Mistree’s current research focus is on learning to manage uncertainty in multi-scale design (from molecular to reduced order models) to facilitate the integrated design of materials, product and design process chains. His current education focus is on creating and implementing, in partnership with industry, a curriculum for educating strategic engineers—those who have developed the competencies to create value through the realization of complex engineered systems.
