This proposal is directed towards the industrial CREATE stream, the industry being aerospace. The research theme is advanced manufacturing. It is spearheaded by the McGill Institute for Aerospace Engineering (MIAE) in collaboration with the Consortium for Research and Innovation in Aerospace in Québec. CRIAQ is a non-profit organization established in 2002 with the financial support of the Québec government. Its mission is to 'increase the competitiveness of the aerospace industry and enhance the collective knowledge base in aerospace through improved education and training of students.' CRIAQ has been extremely successful in promoting research interactions between universities and the aerospace industry such that universities now recognise the educational and academic worth of industrial problems and industry now recognises that universities are valuable R and D resources. However, universities are not overly concerned with using research programs to train industry-ready engineers and, consequently, industry is equivocal about the ultimate worth of the HQP being generated by these CRIAQ projects, since it acknowledges a bias against hiring them after the completion of CRIAQ projects. This CREATE will eradicate this bias by making the HQP industry-ready. The increased hiring rate of such HQP will maintain and grow the high profile of the Canadian Aerospace Industry. The training program is based on the CDIO (Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate) initiative, developed for undergraduate programs in the Aero/Astro department at MIT, but modified for higher degree students. In general, the CDIO approach is based on developing personal and professional skills, interpersonal skills, and a better understanding of aerospace product development, design and manufacturing systems integration, quality and cost control. These attributes will be developed through a series of workshops and seminars, many of which will be offered by the aerospace industry. A closely mentored work term of at least 4 months rounds out the CREATE program.

该提案针对工业CREATE流，该行业是航空航天。研究主题是先进制造业。它由麦吉尔航空航天工程研究所（Miae）与魁北克航空航天研究与创新联盟合作牵头。CRIAQ是一个非营利组织，成立于2002年，由魁北克省政府提供财政支持。其使命是“通过改进对学生的教育和培训，提高航空航天工业的竞争力，增强航空航天方面的集体知识基础。“CRIAQ在促进大学和航空航天工业之间的研究互动方面非常成功，大学现在认识到工业问题的教育和学术价值，工业界现在认识到大学是宝贵的研发资源。然而，大学并不太关心使用研究项目来培训行业准备的工程师，因此，行业对这些CRIAQ项目产生的HQP的最终价值持怀疑态度，因为它承认在CRIAQ项目完成后对雇用他们有偏见。这一CREATE将通过使HQP为行业做好准备来消除这种偏见。这类HQP的雇用率的增加将保持和发展加拿大航空航天工业的高知名度。该培训计划基于CDIO（构思-设计-实施-操作）计划，该计划是为麻省理工学院航空/天文系的本科课程开发的，但针对更高学位的学生进行了修改。总的来说，CDIO方法的基础是发展个人和专业技能，人际交往能力，以及更好地了解航空航天产品开发，设计和制造系统集成，质量和成本控制。将通过一系列讲习班和研讨会来发展这些属性，其中许多讲习班和研讨会将由航空航天工业提供。至少4个月的密切指导工作期限完成了CREATE计划。
