Profile of the programme The main objective of this 2nd study cycle leading to the Master's Degree in Aeronautical Engineering is to complement the qualifications and fundamental competencies of the 1st study cycle in Aeronautical Engineering necessary for the exercise of the aeronautical engineer profession, which is characterized by the realization of concept definition, study, design, manufacturing, construction, production, inspection, quality control and management activities in the aeronautical sector, as well as research and development activities.
In addition, with this study cycle it is also intended to train individuals with sufficient qualifications to pursue further education in the 3rd study cycle in Aeronautical Engineering.
Key learning outcomes The skills to be developed by students within the scope of the course are:
- Evaluate and solve aeronautical/aerospace engineering problems.
- Propose solutions to improve the performance of aeronautical systems and components through the application of analytical methods and computational methods.
- Participate in research projects and foster technological development and innovation of new equipment and techniques.
- Organize technical-scientific information for submission to regulatory authorities, in order to certify new products and services.
- Read and understand scientific documents, disseminate scientific knowledge and promote the transfer of knowledge and technology between universities and industry.
- Be creative and adapt to new situations and problems, paying special attention to self-learning of new knowledge based on available scientific evidence.
- Have capacities that allow the entry into 3rd study cycles in national and international higher education institutions.
Occupational profiles of graduates - Planning, design, manufacturing, and operation of aircraft;
- Maintenance and operation activities of aeronautical assets;
- Management of systems related to aircraft and their operations;
- Consulting activities in Aerospace Engineering;
- Research and development activities in the aerospace field.
