协会's project-based curriculum 将 prepare you to master specialized skills that are essential to creating, 发展中, and improving aircraft and spacecraft.
The aerospace engineering program exposes students to different aspects of the aerospace industry. Students 将 have the opportunity to explore which part of engineering complements their passions, 利益, 和专业技巧.
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 将 finish the semester with a design-build-fly (DBF) capstone project that requires them to build their own remotely piloted vehicles.
通过毕业, students 将 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.
Our program offers industry-standard equipment and collaborative spaces for students to engage in hands-on learning. These resources include:
普拉特 & 惠特尼 Turbomachinery Laboratory: Equipped with wind tunnels for testing speed, 运动, 和气流.
Large-scale turbomachinery cascade tunnel
Boundary layer tunnel
Low-speed tunnel with 6-axis force balance
水位
Materials and structures testing equipment
控制s instrumentation
Thermal/fluids experimental setups
UHart also shares close ties with 普拉特 & 惠特尼, and NASA. Many of our distinguished faculty have conducted research projects at NASA research centers.
The minor in aerospace engineering provides students matriculating into other degree programs at the University of Hartford with an introduction to the discipline of aerospace engineering. The minor in aerospace engineering consists of three required courses and three courses from the list below for a total of 18 credits.
