The Bachelor of Engineering Honours (Aeronautical) develops a comprehensive understanding of the design process and operation of aircraft within the Earth's atmosphere and in space. This program will equip students for the aerospace industry's next evolution. Students will develop a complex understanding of flight vehicle design, including knowledge of aerodynamics, propulsion systems, structural design, materials, avionics, and stability and control systems. Throughout this degree, students will participate in construction of a light aircraft, developing a multifaceted knowledge of design, operations and aeronautical regulations. Through this process students will also learn that maintaining and operating a flight vehicle requires a deep understanding of materials, reliability and maintenance. This knowledge will equip students to structurally analyse and assess aircraft for repairs. In the third year, students will conduct hands-on experiments with wind-tunnel tests, gain elementary flying experience and design their own industry-style test projects. Students will undertake a 12-week internship and complete a final-year honours thesis that enables students to specialise in a aerospace field, such as helicopter design, structural optimisation or experimental aerodynamics.
