Aeronautical Engineering
Where engineering ideas take off
What if your ideas could actually fly? In Aeronautical Engineering, you explore applied aerospace engineering by doing. You design, build and test technology for aircraft, drones and space systems: real projects, together with your team.
Why Aeronautical Engineering is for you
- You dream about aircraft, space and technologies shaping the future.
- Technical puzzles and mathematical challenges energise you.
- You prefer building, testing and experimenting over learning only theory.
- You want to help create technologies that fly… or even reach space.
- You want to build an international career in aerospace and high-tech.

More about Aeronautical Engineering
During this programme, you dive into applied aerospace engineering mainly by doing. You work on projects, experiments and real industry challenges. In labs, workshops and project teams, you design, build and test technologies for aviation, space and other high-tech applications — and see immediately what your ideas set in motion.
Together with fellow students, lecturers and industry partners, you tackle real engineering challenges. You discover how an idea evolves into working technology: from the first concept and design to prototype and testing. Step by step, you’ll learn how engineers drive innovation in aviation, space and high-tech, and how your ideas can eventually – literally – take off.
