At the Chair of Space Mobility and Propulsion we currently offer the following:
The purpose of the Lectures is to give students foundational understanding. Lectures are interactive and built around use-cases and examples.
- Introduction to Spaceflight
- Rocket Propulsion I
- Electric Space Propulsion
The purpose of the Design Challenges is to give students – working in groups – the opportunity to actively engage and deep dive into and engineering design process. Learning engineering and refining important soft-skills!
- Rocket Propulsion II Design Challenge
- Spacecraft Propulsion Design Challenge
No Exam instead three deliverables: Report – Pitch – Software coding developed and associated documentation and commenting And there are prizes!
During Practical Courses students have the opportunity for more hands on elements especially related to testing.
- Control and Simulation of a Rocket-Hopper Demonstrator
- Testing and diagnostics of space propulsion systems
Engineering projects are smaller units and can integrate aspects of all of the above.
