Capstone airplane design project challenges the students to create a preliminary design of an airplane starting from a set of requirements and ending with an integrated and verified system design. The approach used in teaching this course requires the students to work in groups and follow an iterative engineering design process by integrating all the knowledge and skills they have learned so far in an interdisciplinary fashion. The project takes 2 semesters to complete. During the 2nd semester, students have to verify their conceptual design with detailed numerical analysis methods and CAD software. The project ends with preliminary design review that has to satisfy design requirements.

Module aim

Present the basic knowledge in air transport organization.

Module description

Air transport management studies link air transport systems with other transport systems, including airports, airline activities, revenue and expenses, and the specifications of these activities in the current economic and political contexts. It provides introductory knowledge to pricing, business forecasting, planning and decision making.
Students must attend at least 60% of the time scheduled practical lectures.

Module aim

The aim of the module is to acquaint students with the proper procedures for conducting radio communications and to develop their vocabulary and pronunciation skills for transmission of messages in routine and non-routine situations.

Module description

Radio Comunication Procedures introduces students to rules of radiotelephony, vocabulary and terminology used in radio communications, pronunciation and transmission features of messages, the structure of ATC instructions and requirements for them, develops the skills of listening to and understanding radiotelephony in standard and non-standard situations, as well as the skills of using standard phraseology appropriately.
Students must attend at least 60% of the time scheduled practical lectures.
Students must attend at least 80% of the time scheduled laboratory work.

Module aim

Demonstrate the ability to apply the knowledge acquired during studies at the university in the final thesis defence committee.

Module description

Identification of the problems encountered during the thesis writing process. Analysis of possible solutions. Selection of the solutions. Calculations. The actions are repeated until the final satisfactory result of the thesis is achieved, and it complies with the parameters set in the task.

Module aim

To provide students with basic knowledge in economics, formulating systemic understanding of market economics relations and tendencies as well as practical skills, relevant for making and implementing decisions in their professional activities.

Module description

The Course of Economics represents the theory of economics, the object, problems and goals of economics. The main topics of economics studies include: the market elements and performance, competition models and mechanism, conception of national product and calculation methods, fiscal and monetary policy, their aims and operation means, conception, types and evaluation of inflation, unemployment and employment policy, international economics and international economic links.
Students must attend at least 60 % of the time scheduled exercises.

Module aim

To teach students how to apply airplane design methods in a teamwork environment by practicing both oral and written presentation skills and learning how to creatively solve aeronautical engineering problems in an interdisciplinary context as well as understand the effect of these engineering decisions to societal needs.
