Entry requirements

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Prerequisites

The project course is a direct continuation of TMAL Aircraft Conceptual design - project which is thus required..

Intended learning outcomes

The course aims to consolidate the knowledge in aeronautics through the realization of a functional prototype to demonstrate the critical features in an aircraft concept. After completing the course the student will:

be able to translate a concept study in a relevant demonstrator.
be able to do a project plan
have experience from working in a team with product development.

Course content

The course is based on a project that could be from industry or a relevant in-house project. Identification of the critical features to be demonstrated in the prototype, instrumentation, control systems, design of functional prototype, construction of the prototype. Flying the prototype. The course also contains some lectures on project specific technology.

Teaching and working methods

The course is carried as a project with regular meetings. In addition there are lectures in project specific technology. The result from the project is a design of product, a physical demonstrator a written report.
