In this course, it provides an overview of and an introduction to the fundamentals of aeronautics, using the history of aviation as a story line. By taking this course students will have an understanding of a general introduction to aeronautics, detailed knowledge of aerodynamics, a specific understanding of flight performance. The course will also incorporate (design) challenges/competitions, based on the knowledge obtained through the class lectures.
Assessment
This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer needs to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.
