    Aerospace Engineering

    About

    The aerospace engineering program exposes students to different aspects of the aerospace industry. Students will have the opportunity to explore which part of engineering complements their passions, interests, and skillset.

    • On the aeronautics side, the coursework focuses on aeroacoustics and noise problems, vertical take-off, landing systems (drones or helicopters), and aircraft engine research. Students will finish the semester with a design-build-fly (DBF) capstone project that requires them to build their own remotely piloted vehicles.

    By graduation, students will be able to apply the fundamentals of engineering analysis and design to the formulation and solution of emerging technical problems within their discipline of choice.

    Why UHart?

    Our program offers industry-standard equipment and collaborative spaces for students to engage in hands-on learning. These resources include:

    • Pratt & Whitney Turbomachinery Laboratory: Equipped with wind tunnels for testing speed, movement, and airflow.

      • Large-scale turbomachinery cascade tunnel

      • Boundary layer tunnel

      • Low-speed tunnel with 6-axis force balance

      • Water table

    • Materials and structures testing equipment

    • Controls instrumentation

    • Thermal/fluids experimental setups 

    UHart also shares close ties with Pratt & Whitney, and NASA. Many of our distinguished faculty have conducted research projects at NASA research centers.

    Students pursuing the aerospace engineering program will develop in-demand skills in the fundamental science and technologies to create, develop, and improve aircraft and spacecraft.

    The student learning outcomes of the aerospace engineering program leading to a Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering degree will prepare graduates of the program to attain the program's educational objectives.

    Student outcomes (1) through (7) are articulated as follows:

    (1) an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics

    (2) an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors

    (3) an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences

    (4) an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts

    (5) an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives

    (6) an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions

    (7) an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
