OUR AEROSPACE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT
Dive into Aerospace Engineering!

Our department offers several study programs at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. These training courses are led by professors who have diverse and complementary expertise, thus promoting the emergence of innovative multidisciplinary approaches. In addition, we actively encourage interdisciplinary collaborations with other departments such as Mechanical Engineering, Software and Computer Engineering, as well as Electrical Engineering, for the realization of projects that are both complex and innovative.

At the heart of our educational approach lies a strong emphasis on practical learning. Our students benefit from concrete projects, simulations, workshops and design challenges that stimulate their creativity and know-how. These projects are not just academic exercises; they represent cutting-edge research relevant to the aerospace industry. We frequently collaborate with government organizations, companies in the aerospace sector and research laboratories, thus giving a concrete and application dimension to our teaching.
