Technical Planning Committee

"Plans mean nothing, but planning is everything."
-Dwight D. Eisenhower

What We Do

  • Appoint the Chief Engineer and Chief of Operations

  • Continually evaluate the technical goals and progress of the HLA's collegiate rocket projects in the context of the program's overall agenda

  • Write project scoping and scheduling documentation to help Department Chiefs and Section Leads coordinate, guide and focus their project management efforts

  • Engage in strategic planning, identifying partnerships, areas of expertise, and technical and operational goals that can further the HLA's mission


Message from the Chair

Though the ongoing coronavirus pandemic continues to disrupt much of our lives, the HLA has installed its first Board of Directors and among this new institution, the Technical Planning Committee.

First and foremost, the TPC is here to serve you, the undergraduate volunteer. The project scoping documents, schedules and planning meetings with the Department Chiefs and others are intended to set the dedicated and diligent work Engineering & Operations does on sound footing.

TPC has put together a team of mentors, many of who are alumni of CCNY Aerospace (the precursor to the HLA) from across industry to provide the Groups with professional, yet approachable, advice and guidance. All the while using their career paths as a case study in the diverse opportunities the world of STEM offers.

These and future efforts are to ensure that every new generation of collegiate rocket engineers are able to stand of the shoulders of their predecessors to look out on greater and greater accomplishments.
