Aerospace engineering and astronautics

Two specialisations:

1. Aerospace Structures and Systems 
2. Aerospace Propulsion Systems

During the first year studies focus on mathematics, physics, mechanics, thermodynamics and computer science. The core subjects for the second year are fundamentals of mechanical design, control engineering and foreign language. Students of aerospace program learn also their specialization subjects like aeronautics and astronautics. The third year is again more specialized. The Aerospace program focuses on aeronautical systems, mechanics of flight, materials for aerospace technologies, propulsion systems and rotorcrafts. The last half of the year in the 3.5-year program is devoted to the supervised work on engineering diploma thesis.

Career opportunities:

Graduates from Aerospace Engineering demonstrate expertise required in the modern aerospace industry, in the airlines and in other industries applying novel technologies. They are also prepared to respond to the needs of research institutions in the field of research, design, development and maintenance of aircraft and spacecraft. Besides of basic electronics and information sciences including CAD, they possess solid knowledge in mechanics and thermodynamics together with an understanding of combustion processes - materials and manufacturing technologies which are used in the aerospace industry.

Examples of modules:

• Electric Circuits • Mechanics of structures • Thermodynamics • Basics of automation and control • Fluid mechanics • Machine design • Introduction to aerospace • Materials in aerospace technology • Integrated CAD/CAM/CAE system • Mechanics of flight • Aircraft Engine Design • Aircraft Design • Aeronautical System • Risk and reliability in aviation • Rotorcraft Aeromechanics
