Aer E 265/Mtreo 265 is the Scientific Balloon Engineering and Operations class.  I instruct the class and it is offered in the fall semesters.  It is currently a 1 credit class and can be a technical elective for Aerospace Engineering students.  The class is centered around the HABET program under the Aerospace Engineering Department and Make to Innovate (M:2:I) and teaches students both the engineering and the operations that go into a high altitude balloon mission.  


For those outside of the university that are interested in a copy of the course packet I have written, please contact me at mnelson at iastate dot edu.
