Robert A. Goehlich focuses on the strategic aspects of decision-making within aerospace organizations, concentrating on the make-or-buy decision in order to examine organizational efficiencies. He develops a decision-supporting process, that handles approximately 50 propositions of make-or-buy decisions, systematically connected to strategic objectives, and organizational, product and environmental characteristics.



Dr. Dr. Robert A. Goehlich studied Aerospace Engineering at the Technical University Berlin and received his doctoral degree in Engineering in 2003. From 2003 to 2005, he created and lectured the world's first 'Space Tourism' Master's and Ph.D. courses as a visiting professor at Keio University, Yokohama, Japan. Since then, he has conducted various projects at an aerospace company. In 2008, he received his doctoral degree in Economics from the European Business School, Oestrich-Winkel, Germany.
