Hybrid
Hybrid learning approach is applied in this study programme. Hybrid learning is an educational model where some students attend class in-person, while others join the class virtually from home.
Curiosity, desire to construct, freedom to put your personal ideas into practice and develop a start-up - all these features fit under this master-degree study program. It is like a two-year long hackathon, where the science-based design of a prototype will become the major source of future skills. We see innovation in aeronautics as an interdisciplinary product, thereby your knowledge in the fields of electronics, mechanics, IT, transportation, aeronautics and any other branch of engineering will facilitate your team and provide the competitive advantage over the others. Everyone who seeks their education at the aeronautical engineering Master’s level should have background knowledge in aerodynamics, aircraft structures, mechanics and aircraft engine types. These courses are available online before the study process begins. All were prepared by the best technical universities in world including MIT, and TU Delft. The students of the current study program will develop the prototypes in teams, therefore individuals who seek like-minded partners or the groups with a unified idea are welcome to apply. The teams will be provided with the consultations by the experienced businesspeople, light on the start-up development will be shed by qualified mentors and the „Futurepreneurs“ programme.
The aim of the study programme is to prepare highly qualified specialists who have acquired interdisciplinary and novel knowledge in the field of aeronautical engineering. These specialists are capable of constructing satellite systems and their elements, overcoming engineering challenges while developing industrial UAVs, conducting interdisciplinary research and applying the obtained results to prototype and innovation development.
Experts and experienced scientists will help to put the project into practice in one of these fields: drones (UAVs), nano-satellites, 3D printing in aeronautics, military innovation in aeronautics.
