Access to space and uncrewed aerial systems are rapidly decreasing in cost, driving new opportunities in communications, defence, and monitoring and management of Earth’s resources. Aerospace systems engineers have the knowledge and skills to design, integrate and control complementary space and aerial craft subsystems to work efficiently, reliably and safely together to support commercial and defence industries. As part of this major, students will pursue topics in space systems engineering, advanced propulsion systems, space instrumentation and control of aerospace structures and vehicles. These topics leverage particular ANU strengths in electrical and mechatronics engineering, intelligent systems, as well as expertise from the Advanced Instrumentation Technology Centre and ANU InSpace. Leveraging ANU’s unique location in Canberra, Australia's defence capital with the largest concentration of defence and national security agencies, assets, and industry bodies in Australia, and existing links with the leading aerospace companies, such as Boeing and Airbus, students pursuing this major will have the chance to apply their skills early on through a range of industry projects and work experience and internship placement opportunities.Learning OutcomesApply systematic design-oriented engineering principles, including those aided by mathematical modelling and computer simulation, to analyse and design aerospace systems, including structural, propulsion, data and flight instrumentation, communication, and guidance, navigation, and control sub-systems.Evaluate solutions to engineering problems in aerospace systems, by selecting and applying theoretical principles and methods from sciences, mathematics, computing, systems theory and engineering disciplines that describe the relationship between fundamental physical sciences and the behaviour of aerospace systems.
