10 questions · two minutes

1. You’re on a plane during take-off and look out at the wing. What do you notice?

2. Would you enjoy designing a part in CAD software and then checking whether it can withstand the loads?

3. Your team’s model drone keeps tipping over during test flights. What do you do?

4. How do you feel about maths, physics and technical drawing?

5. In aviation, a tiny mistake can have serious consequences. How do you feel about working to strict safety standards?

6. Classes, manuals and team projects will be in English, in an international group – just as in the aerospace industry. How does that sound?

7. Do you enjoy taking things apart to see how they work – bikes, engines, electronics?

8. Which topic would you most like to explore in depth?

9. Would you like to join a student team building a rocket, a racing drone or a small aircraft?

10. What motivates you most to study Aerospace Engineering?

⇑Definitions and quotes

Aerospace
Aerospace is the human effort in science, engineering and business to fly in the atmosphere of Earth (aeronautics) and surrounding space (astronautics). Aerospace organizations research, design, manufacture, operate, or maintain aircraft or spacecraft. Aerospace activity is very diverse, with a multitude of commercial, industrial and military applications.
Aerospace Engineering
Aerospace engineering is the primary field of engineering concerned with the development of aircraft and spacecraft. It has two major and overlapping branches: Aeronautical engineering and Astronautical Engineering. Avionics engineering is similar, but deals with the electronics side of aerospace engineering.
Engineering
Engineering is the creative application of science, mathematical methods, and empirical evidence to the innovation, design, construction, operation and maintenance of structures, machines, materials, devices, systems, processes, and organizations. The discipline of engineering encompasses a broad range of more specialized fields of engineering, each with a more specific emphasis on particular areas of applied mathematics, applied science, and types of application. See glossary of engineering.
Engineering
Engineers should press forward with development to meet the diversified needs of people
Harold Chestnut (1981) attributed in: Dr. Harold Chestnut: 1981 Honda Prize Laureate in: Honda Prize Ecotechnology Quote
Engineering
Engineering is too important to wait for science.
Benoît Mandelbrot As quoted in "Fractal Finance" by Greg Phelan in Yale Economic Review (Fall 2005)
Engineering
A man should build a house with his own hands before he calls himself an engineer.
Alexander Solzhenitsyn (1963), One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich, p. 98
