The main contribution of the paper is to present and review the main proposition of this paper, that: 'Systems Engineering provides a beneficial educational framework and process for helping students to understand the aerospace design process more quickly'. The authors 1) illustrate the Systems Engineering components, 2) the integration into the actual final year design project and 3) present evidence that the SE educational framework is an effective way of teaching aerospace design. Finally, an example from the design project is presented to highlight the technical quality of work ensured through the use of the SE process.
