Here is what the Bachelor of Aerospace Systems Engineering (Honours) qualification offered by University of Newcastle covers and who it is designed for.
Learn a systems approach to the design, efficient operation and modification of high-tech devices for the aeronautical and defence industries. Graduates work to develop aerospace systems that are lightweight, yet reliable.
Aerospace systems engineers understand and control the response of aerospace systems to complex interactions between sensors, controllers, actuators and other subsystems. They ensure trouble-free, safe and efficient operations.
Aerospace systems engineering principles deal with the design of aircraft, their subsystems, and other support systems. Graduates ensure these systems work without conflict, and have the required reliability needed in aerospace operations.
This program was developed in partnership with the Australian Defence Force and the Joint Strike Fighter program.
