Research

Test rig of a Saab 2000 in Flumes lab.

Aircraft design and systems

We carry out research in close cooperation with the aviation industry, where our research focusses on design, concept development, aircraft systems, aerodynamics and sub-scale test flights.

Teaching

An airplane is flying in the blue sky.

Aeronautical Engineering, Master's Programme, 120 credits

This programme offers a holistic view on aircraft design. Thanks to close collaboration between the University and the aerospace industry, you will be prepared for working with aircraft design, aircraft engineering, or wind turbine engineering.

Students from the Master's Programme in Aeronautical Engineering

Air show when future engineers tested their designs

Have you ever dreamt of building your own aircraft? That’s exactly what aeronautical engineering students have been doing for the past seven weeks. Well – in any case – they’ve been building a remote-controlled prototype of an aircraft.

Organisation
