The Dr. Jan Roskam Faculty Opportunity Fund at the University of Kansas
The Aerospace Short Course Program at KU started with an idea and passion—the idea to train leaders in the aerospace profession and the passion to innovate and to educate. It all started with Dr. Jan Roskam. The impact and influence that Dr. Roskam has had on theory and practice in airplane and configuration design, on the promotion of the field through his research and service, and on education and mentoring, is profound. With this history in mind, the Dr. Jan Roskam Faculty Opportunity Fund has been established to honor him.
The Dr. Jan Roskam Faculty Opportunity Fund at the University of Kansas will help attract and retain top faculty in Aerospace at KU. The fund will ensure that future generations of engineers continue to learn and grow from the direction of outstanding and distinguished professors like Jan.
