SEMT 4523 Aircraft Design 2

SYNOPSIS

This course gives students exposure to the aircraft design process and methodology. Students are split into a number of groups to carry out aircraft components design and analyses. The progress of the project is closely monitored by the lecturers. Lectures are given to provide the student with information and guidance as the project goes along. Group presentations and feedback from lecturers are regularly arranged for student evaluation and design improvement.
