Program Overview
Aerospace Engineering Program
Overview
The Aerospace Engineering program is designed to develop students' competences and skills in a progressive manner. The curriculum is structured to provide a comprehensive education in aerospace engineering, covering both theoretical and practical aspects.
Curriculum Structure
The program is divided into three years of study, with each year focusing on specific areas of aerospace engineering:
- 1st year: General education (mathematical analysis, geometry, physics, chemistry)
- This year provides a foundation in the fundamental sciences and mathematics.
- 2nd year: Basic engineering education (technical physics, mathematical physics, mechanics of solids and structures, materials, electrical engineering, applied mechanics) and aerodynamics
- Students begin to explore the core subjects of aerospace engineering, including aerodynamics.
- 3rd year: Specialized education in aerospace engineering (flight mechanics, aerospace constructions, aerospace propulsion, aerospace systems)
- In the final year, students delve deeper into the specialized areas of aerospace engineering.
Specialization Options
During the 3rd year of study, students can choose to focus on either:
- Aeronautical engineering (aeronautical plants, technology of aerospace constructions, propulsion systems, multidisciplinary analysis and design of aircraft)
- Space engineering (space environment, space systems, space exploration systems)
Credit Allocation
The curriculum allocates:
- 160 CFU (university credits) to basic, characteristic, related, or integrative educational activities and additional educational activities
- 3 CFU to foreign language knowledge
- 12 CFU to student choice
- 5 CFU to the final exam
Educational Activities
Educational activities are organized into teachings. A teaching is a set of educational activities belonging to one or more scientific-disciplinary sectors, which can correspond to a different number of credits. The curriculum is built on the basis of 19 exams and 3 suitability tests.
