Bio
Dr. Kevin G. Bowcutt is a Boeing Senior Technical Fellow and Chief Scientist of Hypersonics for The Boeing Company, with
32 years of experience. He is an AIAA Fellow, a Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society, and a member of the National Academy
of Engineering. He holds BS, MS and PhD degrees in aerospace engineering from the University of Maryland. Dr. Bowcutt
is an internationally recognized expert in hypersonic aerodynamics, propulsion integration, and vehicle design and optimization.
Notable accomplishments include developing the modern viscous-optimized hypersonic waverider; serving in technical leadership
roles on the National Aero-Space Plane program; leading a project to flight test scramjet engines by launching them from a
light gas gun; originating the concept and optimizing the design of the USAF/DARPA X-51A scramjet-powered waverider vehicle;
leading a team that designed an air-breathing reusable launch vehicle concept; and working on the Space Shuttle Columbia
accident investigation simulating wing aero-thermal-structural failure. In the spring semester of 2007 Dr. Bowcutt was a visiting
professor at Princeton University’s Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department where he taught a course in hypersonic
aircraft design. Dr. Bowcutt currently leads Boeing’s efforts to develop and apply multidisciplinary design analysis and optimization
(MDAO) methods to hypersonic vehicles; leads Boeing’s participation in the international HIFiRE hypersonic flight test
program; and is leading the design of several advanced hypersonic vehicle concepts.
