Core progam

The Aerospace Systems Engineering (ASE) track provides the foundation for developing as an aerospace engineer with a strong systems engineering mindset. Rather than focusing on individual components, you will learn how disciplines such as aerodynamics, structures, materials, propulsion, and control interact within complex aerospace systems, while building advanced mechanical engineering expertise. The program combines core aerospace courses with specialization and elective courses, allowing you to tailor your studies to your interests and career ambitions. Through multidisciplinary projects and close guidance from your mentor, you can develop expertise in areas such as autonomous aerospace systems, advanced aerospace structures, or space instrumentation, preparing you for internships, research, and your graduation project.

The core aerospace courses are:

1. Aerospace I: Flight Dynamics & Control, Propulsion and Air & Spacecraft Design
2. Aerospace II: Aerodynamics, Aerospace Structures & Materials
3. Aerospace Multidisciplinary Challenge-Based Learning Project

These courses are complemented by specialization courses and electives that allow you to deepen your knowledge in areas aligned with your academic and professional goals.

Specialization courses

After being allocated to your division, you鈥檒l select 20 ECTS of specialization courses from a broad list of 28 options. These courses allow you to dive deeper into areas that excite you; whether it鈥檚 autonomous systems of transportation, aerodynamics or light-weight materials and structures. Most courses are worth 5 EC, with some at 2.5 EC, giving you flexibility to mix and match. Your choices must be approved by your mentor, and while you鈥檙e encouraged to stay within your division鈥檚 offerings, you can explore courses from other divisions with your mentor鈥檚 consent. This is your chance to customize your program and build expertise that aligns with your ambitions. 

Professional skills

In addition to the technical courses, there are two mandatory courses on professional skills. These are:

1. Coaching & Tutoring
2. Career Development

These courses are specially designed for Mechanical Engineering students. 

Free Electives

You are required to choose 15 EC of free elective courses. These courses can be selected from all master鈥檚-level courses at 黑料福利网. You can choose ME core and specialization courses from other divisions as free electives. Another option is to extend your internship by 5 EC. Such an extension must be approved as part of your Exam Program well before the start of the internship. 

Internship

A standard 15 EC internship requires 11 weeks of full-time work, including the completion of an internship report. For students who would like a longer internship experience, an optional 5 EC extension is available. This extends the internship to 14 weeks, with the additional credits applied toward elective requirements.

You will work on a project that aligns with your focus area, such as optimizing processes or developing new methods, at a company, research institute, or university in the Netherlands or abroad. Together with your mentor, you will choose the topic and location of your internship. Dutch students are encouraged to complete their internship abroad to gain valuable international experience.

This is your opportunity to put everything you have learned into practice, build a professional network, and prepare for the next step in your development: your graduation project and future career.

Graduation Project

The graduation project gives you the opportunity to explore a topic you are passionate about in depth and make a real impact in the field of aerospace engineering. Over a period of 7.5 months, you will carry out a 45 ECTS research project, applying all the knowledge and skills you have acquired throughout the program to solve complex challenges.

Whether you choose to conduct your graduation project at 黑料福利网, within industry, or at a research institute in the Netherlands or abroad, this is your chance to contribute to meaningful solutions while laying the foundation for a career as an innovative professional in the aerospace sector.
