The Bachelor of engineering Aeronautical Engineering (honors) is designed to equip students with skills to solve challenges in design, construction, propulsion, use and control for safe operation of rotary and fixed winged aircraft. The program offers students the opportunity to learn real-world engineering principles, analyse and interpret aircraft behaviour, aircraft performance and detailed analysis of aircraft structures.<\/p>

Students will study composite materials, aero elasticity, high-speed aerodynamics, fluid dynamics, flight dynamics and control theory. Students will carry out individual project work, which allows them to apply the knowledge they have gained during their studies to a problem in aeronautical engineering as well as visit industrial sites.<\/p>

The aeronautical engineer developed by this program is a skilled, practical engineer with the knowledge of aircraft design, real time operation and flight characteristics who will have opportunity to work in an aerospace or aviation industry both locally and abroad.<\/p>

Rationale<\/strong><\/p>

\u00a0<\/strong>The Aeronautical industry is an important sector in a world of rapid economic growth, transportation and infrastructure development. This is a place where goods, services and people are needed to meet deadlines in the distribution and delivery of such goods and services around the globe. Aeronautical engineers are key to design and operate aircraft to transport these goods, people and services around the globe to those places that require them in a most effective, safe and timely\u00a0manner.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

\u00a0 Aims of the programme<\/strong><\/p>

\u00a0<\/strong>The Aerospace Engineering program delivers an educational program of study that prepares its graduates to become intellectual leaders in industry, government, and academia. Graduates of our programs are grounded in scientific, mathematical, and technical knowledge through coursework that keeps pace with current relevant technologies; they have developed the ability to analyze, and design engineering systems through their immersion in the problem-based activities and, by means of general education courses, they have enhanced their ability to communicate and have acquired an understanding and appreciation for other areas of human intellectual achievement<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
