Despite the harsh realities of the professional workplace, aerospace engineering still lights up the eyes of many. This paper argues that there is a special place for high-risk, ambitious concept architecture and design in the aerospace curriculum. This is essential because of the special characteristics and aptitudes of aerospace students. Several examples of current “grand projects” are considered, and progress towards them is summarized. Several ideas and proven strategies for nurturing such talents in formal curricula are considered.
