Aerospace Engineering

Engineering I

This one-year course is an introduction to aerospace engineering. The students will learn about Laws of engineering and explore engineering as a process. Selected engineering topics such as forces of flight, fluid dynamics, airfoils, flight controls, and lifting techniques will be introduced. Applied mathematical operations will be conducted to coincide with math theory being taught in the student's math classes.

Engineering II

This one-year course is a continuation of Aerospace Engineering I. This course will focus on Student applications of the basic fundamentals of aerospace engineering. Learning experiences will include designing, building, and testing an aerospace vehicle. Emphasis will be placed on being able to demonstrate applied mathematics used in the aerospace industry. Selected aerospace engineering topics will include vehicular stability in pitch, roll, and yaw; inter axis coupling effects; aircraft airframes, and propulsion systems.

Engineering III

This one-year course is designed for students in the engineering program. This course will involve completing a senior project and participating in an internship with UNLV.
